I’m not sure I follow. Unless they did something bananas with the design (which I admit is entirely possible given who designed it), the lift from the wings is transmitted to the rest of the aircraft through a spanwise spar(s). The fuselages hang off of the spar. What forces would rip that apart?
- eismcc 8y agoI would expect the forces go both ways. The fuselages have their own forces on the wings and since they are essentially sub-planes I’d imagine the forces could both strong and un coordinated - eg one trying to go one way while the other tries to go the other way. I’m sure under normal circumstances, computers keep everything aligned, but wondering about stressful situations.
