No current wing from another brand is within the tolerances; the nearest are drawn instead, ranked closest first. The Armstrong S1 (Step 1) 1550 (#1) is already over it. Select a numbered wing to draw it — up to three at a time.
Its 856 mm span is 26% narrower than typical for the area — the median across the 83 current wings within 10% of its size is 1,150 mm.
Closest wings from other brands
No current wing from another brand is within ±5% of area and ±8% of aspect ratio of this one.
The nearest current wings
None of these is within the tolerances above — each misses on area, on aspect ratio, or on both, by up to 1.4× the tolerance.
