Objet : Re: KR> center spars and wing tanks
If you ever wanted to place your plane in an enclosed trailer for hauling
or storage, you would be disappointed to find that the longer spar
prevented it from fitting in. You never know what you may want to do years
down the road. Right now it may not matter but who knows.

That depends on how much dihedral you give the wings when you build

The Jodel's dihedral starts a fair way out as well.

Moving the WAFs further outboard would also decrease the amount of
dihedral.
This would affect roll stability wouldn't it?
