There's very little information on the internet on this crucial piece of a tube and fabric airplane : compression strut,my question is where is it's compression force coming from, is it being compressed by the wing struts/bracing wires,Can you explain what causes the compressive force that the compression strut must withstand? https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FdXY4kWf...GAdVkQ5gPMQCLcB/s1600/2017-05-13+15.27.11.jpg
