On behalf of my fellow wights (whether they so wish it or not) I apologize Fingolfin (Hmmm, familiar nickname is it not?). You clearly researched your post very well in the hope of generating some animated discussion. Apparently the pros and cons of Balrog wings have gone around once (or more than once) too often here. Some discussions have been excrutiatingly in-depth with the arguments varying from analyses not unlike yours to wing to weight ratios. I enjoyed your discourse and, in fact, invite you to set its context more clearly and submit it to us as an article. We would love to have it. With some luck a pro-winger (I am only nominally a pro-winger) will write up a counter-point. Otherwise, keep posting!
