We just weighed our TeenFlight TF1 plane and it came in at 770 lbs. The plane is painted, deluxe interior and a single Skyview touch will all the bells and whistles.
I noticed that the ELSA data plate, that Van's provided, includes the empty weight. Is this required? Didn't have to do it for my 9A. Since so many people fly their planes before they paint, seems like everyone's empty weight is out-of-date no sooner than they print it. I wouldn't be too concerned, but we are considering adding a second Skyview touch which of course would change the weight some.
