[4] Selig airfoils used on the Opus 100 inch span (standard class) RC
    sailplane (designed by Selig around ~1991).  These airfoils started
    life as proprietary sections, and on 12/6/02 they were made public.

    The Opus is still available from http://www.nesail.com (Northeast Sailplane Products): 021206-opus.pdf

[5] Selig airfoils used on the carbon Blackhawk 113.5-inch span (open
    class) RC sailplane (designed by Selig around ~1991).  The Blackhawk
    is no longer produced.  These airfoils started life as proprietary
    sections, and on 12/6/02 they were made public.  Thanks go to the
    original backers of the Blackhawk project: Ray Olsen, Don Scegiel,
    and Doug Diesen (Scottsdale, AZ).

[6] How do I "know" this is the 1903 Wright Flyer even though in NACA
    Report 93 it does not say so explicitly?  I don't know; however, I
    am labeling it as such based on communications with Prof Fred Culick
    at Caltech.  He has done considerable research on the topic and
    believes that this airfoil is very close to the 1903 Wright Flyer
    airfoil.  Keep in mind this aircraft had deformable fabric-covered
    wrapping wings, so as hard as one might try it is only possible to
    approximate the 1903 Wright Flyer wing section with a single
    airfoil.
