Wing, Airplane

One piece of thin, 3-layer plywood that was part of an airplane wing. The grain direction of the wood (probably mahogany or lauan) alternates perpendicularly between each layer. Also, it appears that a layer of cloth is bonded between the wood layers. The outside wood layers are varnished. This plywood piece was used on the Stout "Batwing" airplane.
