Quite agree Rhayader, but KLM only use a F70 on their Cityhopper from LPL-AMS and only a few passengers have check-in baggage, so on a full flight were talking 140kgs max not a tonne.
My thougth was more from a passenger point of view (not that an overweight aircraft isn't a concern to passengers) who are paying for excess baggage when they fly with orange........are they being ripped off?
