That 146 incident must have been pretty hairy up to the point of failure...the poor old thing only has a VNe of 305kts or .72M on the -300 model. The 146 is a slow boat, and the thick slow speed wing is not happy at high speed at all. -200s tend to have a little hump or tuck at .67 but the memory's fading away nowadays.
