Graviman,
You are right, 10e9 is really not achieved on airframe structures in practice, but it is analytically. 10e7 or 8 is attained in the field, and even that would be quite difficult for an aircraft whose control is based on the power train. FBW is of no hope, because it is the flight power system that falls short.
