Well, I'm not going to imply that exceeding CG limits will definitely cause you to crash and die, BUT if you don't want to risk killing yourself DON'T DO IT.

Don't. You will likely invalidate your insurance and risk damaging the plane and yourselves.

> I don't want to die!!!!!!
And if you do, everyone will say "Well, they took off outside the manufacturer's stated limitations. That was a stupid thing to do and was the cause of the accident. What a waste."

Of course, if your instructor is an experienced test pilot that would shed a slightly different light on it...up to you really...
