Legacy weight and balance

I have never seen a twin engine Legacy!  Do you have any pictures?  :>)

 

Seriously, you are several hundred pounds overweight.  How did this happen?  Are you still in the envelope?  You would be better off getting some of the weight out of the plane than just saying that it doesn’t matter by arbitrarily raising the gross weight to 2600.

 

My 2 cents….:>)

Okay I weighed the airplane!  I'm trying to go on a diet.  Actually the plane weighs about 1750.

So is anyone out there grossing their airplane up to 2600 pounds?  On a legacy.  I know the factory recommends 2200 pounds and I hear many of you gross about it 2400.

For my aircraft to fly with two people with baggage and full fuel, she would gross out at about 2600 pounds.

Ideas, thoughts, suggestions!
