WING STRUCTURE
1. DESCRIPTION
The wing is constructed in a conventional spar, rib, and shear section arrangement. The upper and lower
skins are bonded to the spar, ribs, and aft shear web forming a torsion box that carries all of the wing bend-
ing and torsion loads. The rear shear webs are similar in construction but do not carry through the fuse-
lage. The wing spar is manufactured in one piece and is continuous from wing tip to wing tip. The wing
spar passes under the fuselage below the two front seats and is attached to the fuselage in two locations.
Lift and landing loads are carried by the single carry-through spar, plus a pair of rear shear webs (one on
each wing) attached to the fuselage. The spar is laminated epoxy/glass fiber in a C-section, with a center
closeout panel bonded after cure, for stability. The wing is not field removable.
