Can someone verify the length of a wing for me? I believe it's 16'. Correct? My arms won't reach from my office to my shop....

Thanks Todd and Tony. I appreciate your help.
On Sunday, I added the final red leading edge stripe to the left wing. I am also adding a small (1/4") gold metal flake vinyl accent stripe to the base of that. I needed to get the length to the vinyl shop so they can get it out before the weekend. Once that is done, I can finish the right one and then just focus on the fuselage over the Winter. The race is on to stay ahead of the dreaded cold weather....
