You probably mean useful load or full fuel payload?

Good thread Otis, nice to know there is the occasional person out there thinking about weight.
I bought app ARGUS to manage food intake, lost 15 pounds.

I'd consider losing 15 pounds a victory, a teenager would consider buying an app to be a victory so either way well done!
