Name an aircraft that will be overweight with a full load of fuel even with only the required pilot(s) aboard. Here's a clue or two for you: What is currently the weight of a FAA standard person, what was it previously and when did it change last? Does a pilot fly naked? Does a pilot need to carry anything with him? Are all pilots under 5 foot 9 inches tall? -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. Instead of asking more questions, please answer him directly? That is: "Name an aircraft that will be overweight with a full load of fuel even with only the required pilot(s) aboard." He is well aware that on many 2 and 4 place aircraft you can't fill the seats with adults and fill the tanks without the W&B being out, so he phrased his question in such a way that he thinks he will "win" the discussion. This is a standard mxmanic deflection tactic. When his question is viewed in context with what has already been said, and which he has snipped, his question is basically irrelevant and absurd. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. ...and correct. So just explain it that way. No, he is not. A little searching will find several single place LSA class (now) airplanes that can't carry much weight at all and I know lots of quite heavy pilots, especially when adding the weight of clothes and the flight bag. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |

When you fly, how much fuel do you prefer to carry? When you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last? |

This is a standard mxmanic deflection tactic. The only deflection is yours. You still have not answered my question: Your question is irrelevant and absurd and already got all the answer it deservers. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
