Wing stand

This was based on the EAA design, with tweaks. It was lengthened to 2.53m so that the straps sit over ribs, closer to the ends of the wing. It was deepened from 99cm to 117cm (increase of 18cm), and then the top beam (where the straps lie) broadened from 9cm to 27cm (same increase) with blocks. In this way the wings are separated from each other by a greater distance, sufficient to allow the upturned wingtips not to interfere with each other. The uprights were increased from 112cm to 140cm, sufficient to allow all of ailerons, flaps, elevator and horizontal stabiliser to be slung between the wings. Despite the increased height, the angle at which the wings sit is similar to the original EAA design.
