They pull those wings up at the tips, no?

No. Not in the test I saw. They pull up at various points along the
wing, simulating normal wing loading.


This might be the test you recall Jose. I would have to agree it was hardly
a pin-point failure, and certainly not at the root. Seems to be a pretty
good example of a well designed wing.

No, this wasn't it. What I recall (IIRC) was in German - maybe it was
an Airbus wing. There were three views, I thought I had them on my hard
drive but alas, I don't.

Nonetheless, this one is similar in that the failure happened all at
once, all over.

You need glasses and a hearing aid. At about the 3:27 point the wing is
clearly shown with a kink at one point and the narrator says that the
other wing failed at the same LOCATION (not locations) but wasn't
visible. Sure, some of the skin flew off above the failure point, but
the entire wing didn't even come close to a uniform failure.

It clearly didn't fail at a single location, and certainly not the root like
you predicted, your trollyness.

Go away, you are starting to sound like MX in drag.
