With a empty weight of 275 lbs and a wing sq footage of 30.9, I am not

..ps allow 125 lbs for the 582 and that leaves you 150 lbs for the airframe.

As the Loving Spoonfull used to sing "Do you believe in Magic?" :-)
Ahhh....the optimism of some designers will be tempered with the first weigh in
of the prototype LOL!!

See ya

Hell, that ain't so hard! Just fill the fuselage and wing with helium!

Um, that's the basic Trilogy airplane with the booms and empennage
folded over the top for storage. A pretty neat idea, actually.

BTW, I see that in the last day or so they've added a second page of
photos to the Trilogy site, depicting the tooling and inventory. Based
on what I see there, the whole idea looks a lot better thought out and
more completely executed than I originally thought.

However, I still think that the performance claims suggested on the
eBay page are unrealistic. I think the choice of a thick, sharp-nosed
Wortmann airfoil might not have been a great idea, especially when as
highly loaded as their specs suggest.

What's wrong with 9# per sq ft?
I'm working on 30# per sq ft.
