No. They are installed directly into the prevailing wind. The problem is that this wing is a swept wing and as a result wind hitting the leading edge has a tendancy to flow over the wind in a span wise flow. In other words it doesn't always go directly over the wing it migrates span wise towards the the wing tip. The trailing edge fence will hold the airflow more directly over the wing.
I'm not the expert. I'm repeating what I heard from Klaus Savier as to the reasoning but, the correct answer is "pointed directly into the wind.
