Gary,
Many thanks for great info. I don't
have any of those newsletters.
Assuming the tested gross (tested the
left half of the wing from (fusl) centerline outward) then was 1400 lbs/2, less
(est. wt. of the wing itself (50-lbs too high?), loaded to 9000 lbs
(ult., failure), that works out to 9000/650 = 13.8Gs. Also, the newsletter says 4.4Gs x 1.82 (that
equals 8Gs) So at 9000 lbs/8 = a gross of 1125 lbs?
Also, the newsletter says they
increased the size of the main spar inserts (the sparcaps?) before
releasing any kits. So, how can one tell what one has/
What am I missing?

Terrence,
Attached is an article from the very first newsletter:
Lancair Mail 200, October 1985, Volume 01 Issue 01.
The information in the article may shed some light on speculation about
wing construction as provided by the 320/360 builders.
More to follow as I find it.
