You'll need to provide more info.

e.g.

CMP Giles 202, 72" 1.20-1.40 size, version 2 with Blue "Alien" colorscheme, etc.

Well it was late in the day when I was flying and the Sun was very bright in the west. I heard a noise that did not sound right so I decided to land ASAP. In doing so I flew right in the brighness without thinking and was blinded for maybe 6 seconds. I was banked to the left a little but by the time I got my vision backthe airplanewas low and just above the corn field.....but by then in more of a knife-edge attitude. i could not save it and went in the corn. Yup...broke one wing ...bad! ! But rest is real good. Lots of bad luck this year with RC planes...but I am flying my extreme 330...with a messy glow engine. Shoot anyway!

Been quite busy...else I would have got back to you sooner. Capt,n

dang it cap I hated to see that happen, and of course that can happen to anyone. Good luck on finding a wing.
Could u copy the wing ribs on the wing tip and root of your good wing and maybe soome waht rebuild it or cut a foam wing, or even cut the foam wing up for rib patterns
