Hi guys,

has anyone flown 4 people in a 140 or 1 person who's heavy in the right seat? Also how does it handle? I know what the book says, but I wanted to know the experience and how did the plane handle for you.

I have a 140 with 150 hp and my friend is fat, about 270 pounds and I'm 180 pounds. Does he need to get on a treadmill?

in a way the weight limit is good because it has so far kept the fat women out.

Thanks in advance.
