It sure is an ugly sucker though. How much overweight is it?
About 3 tons I think which is only about 1% of empty weight so not too bad, they may get it down over time. Anyone know if there is any truth in the rumour that the test pilots are having a hard time landing x-winds in the simulator?. A lot of pod scraping going on I've heard.
