Hello everyone. I'm new on this forum, brought here by Xavier because I annoyed him with my questions. :)

I am considering buying a S-1S/T project here in France but I would like to know a bit more about the specifications, especially limit load factors on the S-1C, S-1S and S-1SS (the project is of a S-1S but S-1C wings are supplied along with enough wood to build a S-1S pair of wings, so I am considering all options here). I can't find any reliable information on the internet (limit load factors are not listed on the Aviat website, which I find odd), so if anyone could tell me the values from the flight manual, I'd be thankful.

Also, the seller says it has a "long fuselage" (stretched by 4 inches), which sounds great for my 1.90m (6ft3). I'd be glad to read about your experiences with that modification.

Cheers,
Chris
