Nice 6-cell AUR does some damage but does not solve the puzzle.
AUR (14)r789c259; internal SIS forces r9c6=1

Another one step solution is the xy-wing (23-6)r49c3+r5c2; r5c3<>6

Still another one stepper is the almost xy-wing(36-7)r59c3+r8c1 with fin (26)r5c3; r5c1<>7
If the xy-wing is true: r5c1<>7
If the fin is true: ls(26)r5c23-(2=3)r5c9-r4c9=r4c3-(3=6)r9c3-(6=7)r8c1; r5c1<>7
In notation form: xy-wing(36-7)r59c3+r8c1= ls(26)r5c23-(2=3)r5c9-r4c9=r4c3-(3=6)r9c3-(6=7)r8c1; r5c1<>7

1-stepper with forgot-the-name-if-it-has-a-name wing:

(7=6)r8c1 - (6=3)r9c3 - (3)r9c1 = (3)r5c1 ==> r5c1<>7

Ron,

How do you define a "wing"?

I can't think of a definition that includes this pattern, and an XY- and a W-wing. (Do we even need such a definition?)

My notion of a wing is a simple chain with pincers, that can be recognized as a pattern.

Other than the x-wing, a wing is any useful chain of three native strong inferences using two or three digits (candidate values).
