<< Most 'coupes have a useful load of 400 to 500 lbs. Full fuel is no more than 144 lbs plus 15 lbs for oil - at 400 lbs useful load, that leaves 241 lbs for you and your instructor. In 35 years of flying I've always had lightweight instructors, none over 145 lbs. That leaves 96 lbs for you. > Dave: I must differ with you on the load here. Our D model at 1400 gross and 820 empty leaves 580 useful. Minus the 144 for full fuel and 15 for oil leaves me 421 lbs for me, my buddy and luggage. I am 170lbs and have hauled around a 230lb friend with no problem although climb does go to hell.
