Ron, List,

Amen on that sigh, Ron.  Those overshoot times are so disappointing to me.

Are you indicating heavy plates has something to do with that activity?  If
so, what visible signs might show a plate to be heavier than others?

Any other telltale signs that would reflect overshoot conditions before
doing a pitch change?
