Hi Stephan I fly a 415-D, weigh 196 and am 6'2".... I usually fly with my wife, son or friends and if they don't weigh any more than about 225lbs we can do some cross country flying. You will ave a useful load of around 500 lbs plus or
minus about 30# depending on equip. Just regulate the amount of fuel you carry. For this reason I rarely carry more than about 16 gal when I fuel up. If my wife (who is petite) flys with me, we can top em off and carry luggage. Overall comfort is pretty good but after about 2 hours I'm ready to get out and stretch. Hope this helps. Rob 3040H
