I concur.  I hate the '70 version.  Always looks warped and just looks like a J.C. Whitney/Mustang knock-off. :stirpot:

well, for one thing IIRC the 70 has a smooth plasticky finish, and the 71 is textured. Plus the 70 is fatter looking.

Not the greatest shot on a go wing, but the best I have on my computer now.

It's a matter of taste, and I'll leave it at that.

I think they both look good. Just so terminology is correct is 70 the "go wing" and 71 the "gull wing?
