Small Question???

Can a Twotter with twenty pax, one stewardess and baggage actually mantain altitude on one engine whilst lugging a pair of floats about?

I'm told that the Maldives fleet carry either bags or pax, but not both on their longer legs.

Don't think I'd like to be over, or in, Oxfordshire if the answers NO.

I also agree with the above though in that it's nice to see the Twotter back in production. I have many happy memories of lugging oillies and mail bags around Scotland in one thirty years ago. (God, is it that long ago!)
