Don't know about you Andy, but I'd certainly rather
not be the test case! I'd like to think they wouldn't
refuse to pay, but ....

Bruce,
I don't know what the insurance arrangements are in
the places you fly, but what would worry me here in
the UK is this:
Flight outside placarded limits is outside CofA.
Flight without CofA is uninsured.
Are you sure you're covered in the event of a prang?
It's an easy get-out for an insurance company faced
with a potentially big claim.

NTSB database is well populated with aircraft accident
reports that
list flying over max certificated gross weight as a
contributing, or
primary, accident cause.

Can anyone cite a single case where insurance payout
was refused on
that basis.

Please note that I am NOT advocating flying over any
weight limit, I
just think the 'you won't be insured' argument is a
bit thin.
