Ivan's time-tested wing design appears again on his Freighter, utilizing the Eppler 197 airfoil with NACA leading edge cuff outboard. He also added slotted flaps built to Andy Lenon formulae that are very effective. The wing is built in three sections for ease of transportation. Sturdy fixed undercarriage is good for rough grass strips. (June 2000)
