Cherokee 235 vs Trinidad vs Comanche
I doubt you have that much. They useful ALWAYS go down when actually
weighed, and the TRUTH comes out. I know. However, I also know that I NEVER worry about weight & balance, which is a wonderful thing. Four 200 pound guys, full fuel, 90 degrees? Right -- let's go! Let me tell you -- after flying Warriors and Skyhawks, *that* is truly great. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

Okay, okay...with a person of a certain...stature...positioned in Atlas' copilot's seat, it is necessary to carry a *bit* more power in the landing flare. However, we have NO problem taking off, even with full tanks and three other people on board. Very few single engine planes could do that. Montblack So far, Atlas gets 30 more lbs of useful load - and counting :-) Way to go! This winter, I'm kinda going the other way. I've "found" 10 of those 30 pounds you lost! :-( -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
