Help me understand wing loading

[RyanB]

I’m pretty rusty on this subject. Need some clarifying and education on it.

part of the POH for the Archer II says :

B64B2993-1F53-4E92-B5C9-0E488AF06C36.jpeg


So what are these numbers actually saying?
As for wing loading, what is 15.0lb/ft^2 meaning?

if I’m flying straight and level at altitude, how much weight are my wings supporting? If I roll the airplane into a 45deg bank, how much weight are my wings supporting then?

thanks all

I think much of the argument in this thread illustrates how some things are better explained with a few equations and perhaps a diagram than a whole bunch of words.
