> This is what you fail to understand under FAR 25.321.

No, this is what you fail to understand: Yes, FAR 25.321 is the definition of "Flight Load" (which, oddly, doesn't resemble your bullshit definition in post #63) and as I already said in post #61, yes, that is the specific load expressed as g-load in your Vg diagram. Adding to the definition that a "positive" flight load is upward does not change the fact that flight load is only one of the loads discussed under Subpart C - Structure. You seem to have missed section 25.301 Loads under the General heading. Section 25.303 under General is the requirement that a "factor of safety of 1.5 must be applied to the prescribed limit load which are considered external loads on the structure." Section 25.321 Flight Loads, which obviously comes after that, gives some special requirements for flight loads, but it does not give any different FoS. Yet you claim that flight load is the only "external load on the structure" that gets 1.5 FoS? That contradicts both the FAR and common sense, but you continue to argue from you own ignorance of what "load" means in structural analysis -- you just make up your own definitions. You claim to be "certified by the FAA to teach this information" after repeatedly demonstrating that you don't even understand FAR definitions, much less requirements, and forget about discussing basic engineering principles with you.

You seem to think that your pilot's license is a license to bullshit, but we both know why you folded on the challenge to post that bullshit where aeronautical engineers can see it. Anyone who still takes you seriously hasn't been paying attention.
