No But I have owned an Enstrom for over 17 years and put about 1500 hours on her. In the summer there is not enough power to take off much over weight. However when it's cold the power available allows more performance and taking off over weight can be done easier. I absolutely keep her within the power limitations though. When I add a smile it's because I'm happy with that statement.
You are happy with that statement? I think you might be alone in that view.
For example, how do your insurance company, the manufacturer, your maintenance company and the CAA feel about it?
