The spring chord was held by a rear hook, and the wing terminals folded for a 6mm width around the axis bar. The wing fronts have a diagonal groove (the ends are very corroded so no grooves survive here). The bow is oval in section and has a band of three longitudinal grooves. Surviving length 23mm, width 27m23m. As Scole 1973 (Mackreth in Rogerson 1977, EAA 5, p 129-131 no.2).
