If I did my numbers right, that's about 1.2 cubic feet of aluminum. Seems like a lot of aluminum. Well, the tapered wings are a few feet longer, the fiberglass tip tanks are replaced with a second set of aluminum tanks, and who knows what else was changed on the airframe to accommodate the tapered wings. The point is the tapered winged models run about 200 lbs more than the hershey bar winged models. Thanks Ray. |
