I believe the Rebel, Elite and Moose all have modified NACA 4415 airfoils.
They are all 60 inch chords. The Moose has a longer wing with additional
doublers and perhaps some thicker skins.

Is the Moose wing's form (i.e., modified NACA xyz or whatever) the same
shape as the Rebel wing? Presumably the scale is different -- just wondering
about the aerodynamic similarity of the shape.

I wondered because AFS has a recommended location for their angle of attack
(AOA) system's air ports on a Moose wing and I was wondering if that would
translate easily to a Rebel. With identical airfoils, optimal positioning of
the AOA ports should also be the same.
Thanks.
