Hi
I have just acquired a wing (picture attached) which I know very little about except that it is a dive rite. Anybody seen one like this before and can supply some info? It is in perfect condition and I would like to make it up into something. Can't see anything like in on the diverite website.
Thanks in advance.

Can't help you with regard to what it is, but I suspect that the spacing between the two holes will mean that you can build a system very easily based around it. You'll need a backplate and a harness (not necessarily dive rite!) - backplates go for about £50 and the harness you can knock up yourself for about £30. From the look of the wing it's more suitable for twins than a single, but without getting my hands on it I can't really tell you more.
Cheers,
Ben

Thanks Ben
I measured the gap between the holes which is 11 in which I read somewhere is a diverite standard? It has two vertical slots (for camband attachments?) and that is about it. I was hoping to find out its lift but I suppose a trip to the pool with some lead should tell me that. Suspect it is an old design yet it looks nearly new.

It is as close to being an industry standard as you can get
