KR> WIng change and loading

An 8" inboard move on a 11.5' (= 23/2) wing would mean approximately a 6% inboard move of the WAF point. Which would mean an increase to (1.06)^2 times the shear load at the old WAF point and an increase to (1.06)^3 times the bending moment at the old WAF point. Hope that helps. Ameet S
