I know that the wings carry the load in flight, thats why I wanted to go with the wing tanks to stress the wafs less. But what I was getting at was that if 8 inches required 15 Gs - then what does a 125 pound wing with gravity center 40 inches out create in a hard landing? What IS a hard landing? 1.5 Gs? 3? That is for plane weight - what is the folcrum result on the WAFs?
