A fact that was a big surprise to pretty much everybody I know since after all, if you are below the limiting speed----most of us thought stop to stop to stop wasn't even a factor---just as it is in small planes.
I was under the impression that maneuvering speed (I'm guessing that's what you meant) was the speed where full elevator deflection could occur without exceeding the load limits.
