Cessna SID Poll 6
Cabin loads affect wing stress. This is an attempt at determining how often your aircraft flies with a half-load or less. Although it varies by Skymaster model, we assume here that a fully loaded cabin is 1200 lbs (e.g., 6 occupants each carrying a backpack-size bag on their lap, or less occupants with more cargo). Please note that even with this “full” cabin load there is still weight available for 3 – 4 hrs of fuel in the typical Skymaster. If a significant proportion of your flight time is with even less than half-load (for instance, 200 – 400 lbs) please add a message here and let us know.

Ernie,
70% - 90% of the flying Mary & I do is with an average of 400 - 500 lbs cabin load; maybe 15% of the time with a cabin load of 250 lbs. Paul |

Most of the time it is myself and my son-in-law. That is 350 pounds. This is 70-90% of the time. Dale Campbell

I'd say 90% of my loads are in the 400# range.
