WHAT DO I DO WITH WING EXTENSIONS
I have made some wing exteinsions for a DELTA.
I also changed the "angle of attack" for the extension by about 4 - 5 degrees plus, I added an additional length to the leading edge by about 2 inches.
Q) What is made (if anything) to "cover" the small seam (from leading edge to the trailing edge)?
also
Q) Is there a "flange" (of sorts) to apply to the small leading edge extention.
I don't know if these flanges are functional on full size aircraft of whether they are there for a high visibility "change"
This is in mid wing where the angle of attack changes.
Take a look at the leading edge of the AVRO ARROW CF105. This is a perfect description of the angle of attack change.

OK lets try this>
Here is a small shot of the framework
