Passeger weights

Given that one third of the UK population is now clinically obese, is it not time for a re-think of average passenger weights used to produce load sheets.

Just have a look around next time you are in the departure lounge, how many passengers are under 88 kgs?

What weight are you rotating at, what is your maximum/optimum operating altitude, net drift down capability?
