Please feel free to borrow my wall to bang your head against! You're arguing with the man who believed that taking off overweight was fine so long as you didn't overtorque or over temp. That took nearly 6 pages sto get some common sense going.
Chop; pay heed to JimL, he was my Senior Pilot once, knows his way round an aircraft and was the policy man at CAA and JAR where all this stuff was decided.
