Hi Marv,
Getting close to asking for airworthiness... and noticed my Pilots Operating Handbook gives Limit Gs' allowed as 4.5, but does not specify for which of the three airframes the POH covers: 235, 320 and 360.
It also gives allowable gross as
1400# for the 235, and 1685# for the 320 and 360.
Sounds like the gross limit for the 235 is because of lower HP, not airframe... do you have a reference spec?
thanks,
Terrence O'Neill
