Well spotted; looks like they were running square; fatal ... This one really goes the extra mile for lift.   Edited by 2547 - 06 Oct 15 at 3:26pm |

Looks like it is wearing a peaked cap.
I have no idea if lift is generated. The maths says no, but maybe there is less down force than with no kite up? |
