SA316/319/Lama - external load!!

Hello everyone!

I hope some of the seasoned Lama drivers and/or Alouette III choffeurs can help me out!

In a couple of weeks we expect to get a rather substantial ( for us...) sling job.
In the past there where rumours floating around that there exists:
# a STC
# factory authorization (with or without modifications)
# whatever paper

that authorizes to lift 2000 lbs (907 kg) with a 316/319 instead of the POH-limit of 750 kg (1653 lb). .....on the hook.

HOWEVER, I can't find anything in the manuals available to me, nor on the internet.

Do you have any info on this!

I appreciate your help!
