a380 wing structure
hello jetstream,
you ask:"why not," then i can ask:"why, yes?". if the load bearing stucture of the wing is not identical to production types, what are we talking about? and, yes, a VW has a different shape than a mercedes, but that was just the point i wanted to highlight. that airbus now, reluctantly, has to introduce weight penalties is ok, but in my opinion it still needs a full retesting & please that no computer guru/engineer tells me that recalculations only would be sufficient.
