If it is an ACT conversion, actual legal gross would be 1760, so useful would be 480 right? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 2,394 Likes: 2 Member/1500+posts | | Member/1500+posts Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 2,394 Likes: 2 | He also lists it as a 152 when it is clearly a 150M.

It's just something I thought someone might be interested in checking out... with a good prebuy of course.

With an empty weight of 1280lbs. and a gross weight of 1600lbs. the useful load would be 320lbs. Take away 222lbs (O&N tank with 14.5 usable and assuming standard tanks) for full fuel and the pilot better be pretty skinny! Quite literally, a 98lbs. weakling.
