gods do you guys misunderstand things.
when a tiggie is flying the wing loads are borne by the flying wires alone.
the other wires actually go slack in flight.
two wires in parallel and one fails results in a sudden doubling of the load in the remaining wire which often fails it as well.
there is really no redundancy. if they work you live. if they fail the aircraft crashes and more than likely you die.
struts and flying wires are really the most important structural components on an aircraft.
