How many "seasoned" captains, who want do silly things like keep their tickets and not break planes/people, would go and deliberately do something after the manufacturer tells them "DON'T DO THAT?" I think that is called a limitation. The DO might as well have told him to take off 10,000 lbs over gross.

UPS...if you are one of those "seasoned" captains and you are flying for Big Brown, please stick to flying boxes.
