Terrance,

For safety reasons, you = should fly below the factory recommended gross weights or work your way = up, very slowly, to and possibly through them.

For = liability,=A0monetary=A0and legal reasons, you should set your gross = weight at the maximum that you think that you might ever attempt to fly = at or even higher.

Suppose you set your gross = weight at 1,400 lbs and fly at 1,450 and have an incident. The insurance = company would not have to pay your claim.

By the way, my O-320 = gross=A0weight=A0is set at 1,900 lbs.

Hi = Marv,
=A0
Getting close to asking for = airworthiness... and noticed=A0my 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, =A0and 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=A0spec?=A0
=A0
thanks,
