[overture] Re: Generating grid for a wing

I am trying to generate a grid for onera m6 wing. I took a surface grid in
the form of plot3d file. I am able to read it into ogen. Now I am trying to
generate volume grid using "mapping from normals" but I get an error that
the mapping wing-surface is unknown. I am sure I am making a silly mistake
but I am not able to figure it out. I have attached the files. Can you take
a look please.
Thanks
