Heaviest loads

[Big-D]

Heaviest load? Not 100% sure. My story is similar to Demon's in that I took a rather large lady for a flip - That is the polite way of describing a ton-of-fun-big-momma's-house aunty.

She is a friend of the family and REALLY wanted to fly - Weighing in at an even 120kg myself I generally ask passengers how much they weigh before taking them up but this aunty just refused to tell me, so I decided that she might not be as heavy as she looks and into the backseat she went. I became rather scared when the seatbelt would hardly fit around her, I have been pax in my own plane and the seatbelt was no problem - Big castle lager boep and all :D :D

Took off late afternoon and my wife said that she feared that Petit's 1km runway was not going to be long enough. Was alright once we got airborne but the plane just does not feel the same and you have to approach with a lot of speed on landing when heavy like that.

Moral of the story - If the aunty won't tell you her weight and you think she is too heavy - Let your "skraal" flying buddies take her for a spin

Cheers

You could always use your BRS chute like NASA uses the chutes for their splashdowns
