Default What Airfoil for Extra

On most of these ARFs of Extras, CAPs and Katanas, what airfoil section is being utilized? What I see looks thin, but from pictures one cannot determine much.
I would like to design a 72", sort-of-scale looking sport plane utilizing slab sides with a canopy and cowl from an Extra. Could you please suggest an airfoil section to me? I have Profili 2.15, and eventhough my version does not ask for a wing panel span, it will suffice.
Any help you offer will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Never mind. I should have done a search prior to posting this question.
The recommended airfoil will be the S8035, a 14% airfoil which is already provided by Profili 2.15.

Thanks anyway.
