This is the entry from my the manual I wrote:
Warning: If operating the aircraft at a weight over the gross weight:
1) The load factor will decrease as follows: 1100
āgā
over gross = 6 x ------------------
Weight in lbs. (1100 +excess)
(for example at 1150lbs the limit load factor will be 3.8
Ultimate load factor = limit load factor divided by the standard aircraft
safety factor of 1.5)
2) Reduced performance:
-Stall speed will be higher.
-Rate of climb and
controllability will deteriorate.
3) The center of gravity must always stay within the design limits.
