I am close to pulling the trigger on buying a
flying Rv-3. I have a question about useful load.
The design gross weight is 1,100 lbs. The empty weight is
827 lbs. With a pilot weighing in at 190 I will only be able to fly
With 13 gals of fuel without exceeding the design gross weight.
Is 827 lbs heavy for an RV-3? Do you Rv-3ers fly above
Gross weight (full fuel) for cross country flight?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
