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!



You're ****ting me. Just because you would have been overgrossed with four
passengers now you're flying by yourself? Two others wouldn't go?

Well, maybe it's for the best. Until you get an instrument rating, your chances
of flying cross country on any particular day are no better than 50-50.
