Finally weighed my Sportsman today.
Pulled off the bush tires and went back to the 850's.
Added in all the interior pieces that had yet to be reinstalled. Some will not go in until after final inspection is complete and signed off.
I patched together the right wing vent while waiting for the last fitting. Planning on doing the fuel flow test (again) tomorrow with the new header vent configuration.
All usable fuel removed.
Using my new ramps for the scales and not jacking each wheel and lowering onto the scale.
Levelled fuselage.
Good news and bad news.
Bad news: Heavier than I wanted. 1499 lbs. Was hoping for around 1450 lbs.
Good news: C of G is OK. Will need ballast in the aft baggage area in a single pilot configuration with low fuel.
Fuel flow test redo tomorrow.
