We have just started putting together a list of tensions for the bettsometer
for various fabrics as they are not all the same.
Trike for example have different grade fabrics in different parts of the
wing, requiring different tensions, and there are different tensions again
for fabric aircraft.
On that note, if anyone has any tension figures available I would be really
interested to hear from you.

Cheers
Chris
