Wing Loading GN-1 Aircamper

The wing loading is another useful aircraft design ratio and is the gross weight of the aircraft divided by the wing area.

For a GN-1 Aircamper having a gross weight (Wo) of 1100 lbs and a wing area (S) of 145 square feet, the wing loading (W/S) = 1100 / 145 = 7.59 lb per square foot (psf).
