Default RE: Giant Aeromaster Kit Build Along

Here's a piece of historical trivia about the Aeromaster. The first Andrews kits had straight wings. Then the kit was updated as the "Too" adding the option to build one or both wings swept using all the same parts as a straight wing. Naturally a tapered wing is going to have a greater web distance between the ribs than the straight wing and so the webs included were a bit too short to cover the space. Wouldn't it be kinda funny if the "Giant" designer copied it thinking it was intentional?
