Larry:
 
I am right at 220 lbs myself and have flown with another 220 pounder and half tanks. The plane will fly, but I would not want to get into any attiude other than level flight this way.
I have a 75 HP C model and it will stall like a brick if you are overloaded.
Since I use it for flying myself around it is not a problem, but if you want to take anyone but tinkerbelle with you, a coupe may not be for you.
And you do have to take fuel with you...
