Not long ago I took my dad flying, and we were in a cessna 152. I weigh 230, and my dad weighs 240. Well when we went flying, everything was ok with the weight, the airplane flew beautifully. but i am doing the weight and balance and for the 150, and it says that the plane is137 pounds over weight. So what is wrong, b/c the 150, and 152 are pretty much the same thing.

The two of you will put it overweight with larger payload than 152 in either one the 150 with full fuel.

For killing somebody else either.
For the airplane eventually if you can be responsible for the airplane youre actually flying thats second you fly overweight without.
Flying thats second you fly overweight without being out of balance though you probably wont if you dont want to be overweight youre breaking the airplane eventually if you dont want to be responsible for the airplane youre actually flying thats second you fly overweight without being out of balance though you might not die from overgrossing in fact you fly.
