The article tells EZ operators to placard their aircraft with a
maximum
load factor of 2.5g; that wouldn't make for a very effective aerobatic
aircraft. Of course, there might be some later resolution that I
haven't found that repeals the 2.5g limit; if anybody knows of such a
thing I'd appreciate it if you'd describe it in a reply to this post.
I don't believe that there's been any further resolution, but realize
that this restriction ONLY applied to the Vari-EZ aircraft, not the
Long-EZE, COZY III, COZY MKIV, E-Racer, etc. aircraft that use a
completely different wing/spar mounting scheme. On those aircraft,
there is no G-limit restriction other than that of the Utility category
(to which they were designed as a minimum, if not certificated).
