Question Stall vane

Hi,

Earlier today while discussing Citation CJ3 stall characteristics we ended up realising that almost all aircraft we manage to recall (mostly single/twin engine props) have the stall warning vane, or the stall warning system for that matters, located at the left wing leading edge.

Off course we could not find a logical reason for that, besides, convenience, coincidence or perhaps some old standard that was kept over the years.

Could someone shed some light on this?

Cheers
BF
