After trying several Startpage searches for the as-built weights of covered wings on ultralights, I haven't come up with much. So I'm hoping that people who have at some point weighed their wings might use this thread to help compile an informal set of data points.
If you want to share your build stats, and wouldn't mind, please add an entry to this thread and list, if possible:
1.) aircraft type
2.) is the weight given for the full span wing, or for a shorter wing panel? (example: a removable wing half)
3.) actual weight of the wing, (or the wing panel):
4.) Is the weight for a covered wing, or is it for the wing before covering?
5.) length of the wing (or the wing panel)
6.) chord
7.) was this for stock wing construction (and materials), or for a modified wing construction, (and how modified)?
Thanks, I hope this could become a useful information resource for builders and designers alike.
