From: "Chris In Madison" --> Homebuilt-List message posted by: "Chris In Madison" Hello all, Just thinking out loud here, wondering about possible aircraft configurations. I've found a 2-seat tube and fabric airplane kit I really like. It's got a gross weight of 1550 lbs and a useful load of 900 lbs (about 790 w/full fuel) and a really large cargo area. Presuming weight and balance limits are observed, what are the implications of someone adding a second row of seats in the cargo area for occasional passengers? Would one need to insure this aircraft as a four-seater? Are we just asking for trouble? Would one be better off building a true 4-seat aircraft instead? Thanks and best regards, Chris -------- Chris Owens Waunakee, WI Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=62022#62022 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:16:46 PM PST US From: "Fred Weaver" Subject: Re: Homebuilt-List: Semantics question: 3 or 4 seats in a 2-seat aircraft? --> Homebuilt-List message posted by: "Fred Weaver" Way too vague Chris..... Stop screwing around and let the people know what airplane you are really considering. Then you can get the appropriate response.
