Hey Scott, remember way back in day one of
private pilot ground school, they gave us the principle of lift=weight in
unaccellerated flight? It's even a question on the private written.
The funny thing is, it ain't so...never has been.
As you so correctly calculated, we're flying around with lift being 30-60 lbs
more than weight in our 320's. I'm quite sure that if the Feds ever found out
about this, they'd file violations against us! How dare you fly around
in such a condition, you...you...scofflaw.
