Yep, figure 150 gals@ 900 lbs, so you're left with about 500.

Regardless, I've been dissuaded by the local 337 A&P from getting into the P, in spite very appealing comfort. He put a number like 1.5-2x on the recurring costs (but I don't want to (re-)start those threads). So I'd be looking for that rare Turbo II, or putting up with hydraulic power-packs and doors that go like this <--[]-->.

I would agree with your A&P .
