Looking at the reference I seem to have found a simple explanation of the loads on a wing. While not elliptical or the Shenk method which I understand is considered more accurate but not as conservative and the safety factor of 2 (not 1.5 but noted), are there any comments? It seems rather straight forward and simple.
