Looks good but the wing was so close to the runway and this aircraft is high wing what the heck would i do in the citation ?

it would have only taken a nasty gust or downdraught for that wing to have moved the extra foot and impacted the runway with disastrous results
as MJ stated the ailerons are the wrong way around for that config and suggest the pilot was trying to stop the wing impacting by lifting it up!
Better in extreme conditions to fly it on something which is rarely taught especially in light GA
