Should I be scared -- C172 over Gross
gatt wrote:
Tell it to the insurance company or your passengers if you prang the landing because, say, you've never carried passengers in the back of a C-172 before and, say, you hit a windshear on final. Ferry pilots don't carry unwitting passengers in back when they're overgross. They might if they hadn't already loaded it to capacity with fuel. Ferrying operations are a good example of flying overgrossed successfully. Unfortunately, the cabin is usually stuffed with fuel bladders so there's no room for passengers unless they want to ride outside in the smoking section. -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN mschnerdatcarolina.rr.com |
