Wing Load Changes
My bird came from Europe with two previous owners. I know they were IFR rated and used it for business a lot. Probably rough weather flying. Always hangered and they put a total of 2400 hours on before I put an additional 400 hours on it. There are no changes to original wings. It does have De-Icing Boots. All interior of wing was zinc chromated as was interior of cabin and booms. That should have cut down on corrosion. My bird has 150 gallon tanks, so that is 900 Lbs. of fuel pulling down on wings. That is a lot more weight than the earlier birds. Dale Campbell
