> And I want to ask, did he CARRY them, or how many G's did he pull? I've seen him fly well over 1300 pounds (and heard of 1400 lbs), AND register 6g's on his g-meter, all in the same flight. At the Gatherings he regularly gives rides to anybody that will fit, and regularly pulls close to 6 g's. This is a plane with a lot of hours on it. So many, in fact, that the landing gear brackets loosened up so much that you could see them pushing on the upper wing skins at one Gathering. I'm pretty sure he fixed that, but I think that means there's some margin above 6 g's, but I didn't say it was OK...
