I also knew that they had taken
off over gross on that flight, from things that I heard them say before
takeoff.


I'm curious, did they show you the W&B sheet for the flight? How did you
know they over gross?


Read!


You are saying you heard the pilots say they were over gross?


Not me, the OP.

Or did they just say they were heavy? If I heard two pilots say they were
over gross I think I'd get my ass off the plane.


Just before takeoff?

Hopefully the OP will clarify.
