Not any more. The only thing limiting PAX weight is how many lard
asses can get stuffed into the same row.
Average pax weights have been revised upwards in recent years to
reflect the fact that High Fructose Corn Syrup has become the new

You mean they schedule on that or do actual performance on the day that
