Genuine question.

I have just seen one of these at the dive shop and it had a horseshoe type wing but it was the otherway round to what I have normally seen. Why would the wing be dived this way up.

I don't know Paul, I didn't really inspect it. Just thought it odd that the wing "looked" like it was on upside down. There was a dump valve where you would expect one to be on a horseshoe wing (kidney placement) but there was also one where at the kidney location, similar to the placing of the top dump on an OMS wing.

Sorry Paul it was a Sentinel. I used too much of Mark's post. I assumed he meant the Sentinel looked a little like a Meg. But hey I have no idea if they look similar, when I asked what it was I was told it was a Sentinel.
