Hmmm...I see some very specific language in this:


Anyone know what the real gross weight limit is?

1440 lbs. See here, in the row labeled "New: Design Gross Weight Increase (Edition 2)":
http://www.zenithair.com/stolch750/data/750-cruzer-flyer-4-2013-2p.pdf

So useful load of non-LSA Cruzer, with a "typical" empty weight of 780 lbs at 1440 lbs gross, is 660 lbs. Full fuel (24 gals) payload is 516 lbs. Note that the "edition 2" CH-750 also has a design gross of 1440 lbs, so if one still needs STOL and payload but not LSA, it is an option to consider.
