Default Wing Sections for Model Planes

Here are first two pages of info I still have by Alexander M Lippish.
I always liked his approach to this subject.
This is from an AIR TRAILS magazine from 1950, so some experts may find fault.

The article is quite long (actually going two months) - I guess I will copy all of it and put it on my web page and link to here --to avoid cluttering up the RVUniverse site..
Lippisch is/was a hell of a lot smarter than me - and frankly -is where I got a lot of my ideas from .
I don't blame him for my intrepretations tho----------
