Default RE: New OXAI CITRIN by Wolfgang and Roland Matt

That makes some sense although I thought tip vortices didn't really manifest until aft of the surface itself. Certainly the aileron flow fence has some merit as well to help avoid airflow spill-off from the ends of the surface. I would think if that's the reasoning they would bookend the ailerons instead of just having fences on the outboard edge.
