Summary

The inclusion of incidence wires in strength calculations, by the method of strain energy, makes very little difference in normal flight conditions, but shows, large changes in wing loads in nose diving and in centre section loads with a broken flying wire. There is a serious increase of load in the bottom plane in nose diving.
