Oh dear! Pilots talking structural engineering. The A380 failure is immaterial because we are talking about failure within 3 % of limit load. This is supposed to be 150% of design load. If we assume that the A380's positive G rating is +4, then to even reach the design load would require an aircraft to do something like flying through a thunderstorm at absolute max gross.
To put it yet another way. If an A380 ever reached its limit load in flight, failure of a bit of wing structure (which is by the way fail safe, with redundant load paths) is likely to be the very least of your problems.
Pleases top bagging Airbus.
