Re: Amadeus
I don't know any private pilot that's going to fly a plane over the gross weight unless he's looking to become a statistic.
My Cessna 340A has a gross weight of 6050 lbs, of which 3850 lbs is the aircraft as equipped. That leaves me 2200 lbs for cargo including fuel. Given that I plan on getting from point A to point B in one piece, fuel loading and weight and balance is something that's calculated before every flight.
