At Fail? i.e. 1.5 limit?
from this SLF - Probably 1.5 re limit load. But there may be other factors re size ( area) of MAX stabilizer compared to NG and the effects of a longer lever arm re pitch change per degree stabilizer movement. That kind of discussion is well beyond my old wheelhouse/pay grade. MY cliffs note version is that with a longer lever arm AND same size ( area) stabilizer , less stabilizer angle change ( and load ) is needed to give the same nose up/down pitch change.
