For Scott Krueger - Dont understand why you are using 24,000 lbs in your calculations.  Since wing failed at 12,000 lbs, wouldnt that be the figure to use?

Lancairs original specifications set maximum gross weight at 2900 lbs so if you use that figure,  12,000/2900 = 4.14 which I thought was the original  "G" limitation.  I realize that Lancair has increased the max gross weight to 3200 lbs, so if you use those figures, wouldnt the max "G"  limitation (12,000/3200) be reduced to 3.75 ?

Obviously, there is something I dont understand here, Thanks Bill Hogarty
