Wow...that doesn't leave much flexibility for passengers. Why would someone
want an aircraft that you couldn't take anyone with you (other than
aerobatics of course)? I suppose if you used the aircraft for "commuting"
it might make sense.

I know that when I was receiving training, my instructor once had me bring

weight.

The Taylorcraft (Sport?) that's supposed to go into manufacture would
likely be overweight with TWO adult American males on board.
