imho its the legs, and its a tension strut btw. At very high angles of 
attack the load pulls the wings forward. I found that hard to believe 
too but it's true. It was first realized when an early glass glider 
clapped its wings in a high G pullup and they clapped in front of the 
pilots eyes. He survived to tell the tail.
