Looks like there are quite a few owners of the Lancair that have had unexpected wing failures. I am starting a new thread to allow folks to post messages that are not buried at the end of another thread.

I have been flying my Lancair very scale like with no abrupt maneuvers like snap-rolls or high speed tight turns. I used the stock equipment and did not glass the wing joint. I may be "a failure waiting to happen" but so far I have not seen any signs of failure. I have an OS 91 Surpass II with a 3-Blade prop (11 x 8 I think). I perform high speed low passes (beautiful thing to see) by making a shallow dive and then a gradual climb out at the end of the field as I back off the throttle.

I am glassing the wing joint on my Patriot version of this plane just for safety sake. I hope someone can come up with a good reason why there have been so many wing failures.
