I'm guessing, but if operation with the rear seats removed isn't
mentioned in the POH, it's not approved.


The POH isn't necessarily relavant. My 182 didn't mention a word about
it. The more important document is the equipment list.



Was the revised W&B located in the equipment list also?


I carried one weight and balance form with three W+B scenarios. All
seats in, rear seat removed and rear and copilot seats removed. The
equipment list gave weights and stations for the seats. I used the
station listed but used actual weight since the seats weighed a little
more with the leather interior I had installed.
