We've got Atlas just about perfect now (for an often-flown, "hard-VFR"
bird), but there's always *something* that "needs" to be added! One has to ask... How much did Atlas weigh when you bought him? How much does Atlas weigh with all your "improvements"? Well, everything we've put in has resulted in something being pulled out. The leather interior was probably the biggest weight penalty, but with our useful load it didn't really matter. Everything else we've added has been done while removing something older and (usually) heavier. Nowadays, everything is lighter, from radios to intercoms to transponders. And polishing the prop probably saved us some weight, too! :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
