Eventually, these will be made available to everybody on Matronics, but for
the time being they are posted at http://www.home.earthlink.net/~tp-1/ just
for the nice boys and girls of RAH and RAU.

Enjoy...

Got the wing spar design updated yet? Or are we trying to thin the
herd?

Nothing wrong with the wing, Clare.
But there IS something wrong with trying to overload it like you guys did.

The original agreement was that your fearless leader was to have a heavier
wing designed (by a "real" aero engineer) to handle a heavier airplane.
That was never done.

So if you think you have a bitch coming, point it back north.

If built according to plans your wing will NOT withstand the G rating
listed in your info - and even YOU did not fly YOUR plane built
according to plans.
The jury strut is also CRITICAL, and as designed is an accident
waiting to happen.
So answer the question - have you upgraded the plans?
If the answer is no, everyone on the group is entitled to know the
plane is dangerous as designed, but can relatively easily be made into
a safe airplane.
