The lml has m entioned the original 235 gross of 1400 was raised to 1500 after the tests ... which tests? I heard 9Gs somewhere, and also heard that the glass margin of safety is sometimes designed for Limit plus 100% instead of 50%... Either way, it's comforting to hear the big G numbers, and will probably set our Limit at 4.4Gs and 1650. I watched the G-meter a lot in Colorado X-country flightrs with big thermal bumps, and they always FELT a lot bigger than they registered on the meter...fwiw.
