Just curious. Any suggestions for a maximum weight for a passenger? That of course considers walking on the wing, ability to get into the plane, and shoulder width once in. I do some Angel Flights and sometimes see passenger weights up around 275 or even a bit higher. I've been reluctant up to now to carry anyone that weighs more than about 230. Of course, if it is just the two of us I would also have to consider CG. Just how strong is the area under the wing walk? As an aside, I've started leaving the flaps down for getting into and out of the plane when I'm carrying passengers. Reduces the likelihood they'll step on the flaps in spite of me having briefed them. Bob
