Lark manual with scratched in hard to read W&B numbers for that particular ship:http://www.clubplaneadoresbari.com.a...ark_Manual.pdf

Seems to me that a tail dolly heavy enough to put it out of the aft limit would have to be very heavy.

The manual is interesting. P. 7 says the minimum front seat weight is
183 lbs. it also gives 22-47% mac range
The chart on the last page--an obvious reference if you're taking
light passengers in the front seat -- says 90 lbs in the front seat is
ok
The calculation on the second to last page says 183 in the front seat
is fine at 37%, and 121 in each seat is fine at 39%
Why is the placard 183 lbs then?
Somebody who knows how much a lark dolly weighs could certainly tell
us minimum front seat weight with dolly on given this chart
I surely hope we're not replaying this one
