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!



NEVER?

"...adding a touch of Paul-power."

So far, Atlas gets 30 more lbs of useful load - and counting :-)

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.

Way to go!

This winter, I'm kinda going the other way. I've "found" 10 of those
30 pounds you lost!
