Brief Description: Studied effects of fuselage widening

Layout of the main fuselage builkheads to study what has to be done to accomodate the change in fuselage width... There are concerns in doing so with deep stall characteristics and general flight performance at the low end of the spectrum, and making changes like this shouldn't be taken lightly. From the point of view of modifications, even this simple change has consequences. A full flight test program will of course be followed upon completion in order to deem the design "safe".
