 |
|
If I put a 6 g load on a 1320 lb airplane I would expect to see 7920 lbs or 3600 kg for the ultimate test weight - not the 2446 kg total listed in the report. Can anyone explain?

You don't have to account for any of the weight that is in the wing or is distributed within the wing, like the fuel.

The wings themselves have a certain amount of weight. The weight of
the wings counted is in addition to the weight of the external load
stacked on the wing for load calculations.
Also, the wing root structure supports the weight of the fuselage
only, the weight of the wings themselves and fuel carried in the wings
is not lifted by the wing root structure. This fact is also accounted
for in the load testing and reduces the total weight needed for the
test.
