Flown C172's for quite a while, and never had anybody in the back.
Now I'm planning on quite a trip, with 2 pax and luggage.

Wow thanks for all the help guys. I showed this post and thread to the
two potential pax.

Anyways, I think my weight problem is solved.

I have some questions now not on weight but on wake turbulence
avoidance. I'll be flying into the nearest local class C to meet my two
former pax that will be arriving on a RJ, then renting a car!
