I know this has been discussed in the past, howerver I couldn't get an answer to this question :
Is there somewhere wind-tunnel data from any of the Riblett GA airfoils ?
If not, is there proof that the published data in the book is inacurate ? There are a few aircrafts out there flying with GA airfoils, even better, according to the book some had other airfoils before so it could be possible to extract some info and compare before/after against computer simulation of before/after.

I'm working purely with the book's data at the moment, extrapolated to my required conditions using TOWS charts (clmax vs Re for example).

thanks
