Has anybody some experiences with flight tests carrying heavy asymmetric

Yes, but you probably know the drill about public info
and all that. You might try:

Dungan and Clark, "Flight testing large lateral asymmetries
on highly augmented fighter/attack aircraft", AIAA-1994-2138.
It deals with clearing the F/A-18A/D for carriage of a 2000+ lb
guided bomb on the outboard stations, and it's publicly available
through AIAA.

Thanks Dave!

That looks like the kind of info I was searching for!
