Dean,

Your message is so true, and I for one could dramatically increase the
useful load by losing 10, 20, or even 30 pounds! That's a lot more
significant than any fuel weight rounding.

A year or two ago, I challenged a friend of mine (my 'flying buddy') to a
diet. Within a few months, we had increased our useful 'useful load' by 50
pounds! That's almost like changing the 160hp to a 180hp plus the added
health benefits for free.
