- Are both wings the same? It sounds like a little built in washout. I would
- leave it alone. If you really want to take it out, on a Kadet the covering
- should be strong enough. After you cover it, prop it up to reverse the warp
- about the same amount as you have. Then reshrink the covering and release.
- It should be straight.
