I remember reading that a Dakota will carry anything if you can shut the door....
Douglas not Piper

Even Piper Dakotas are good load haulers...

As far as this incident was concerned, I was somewhat surprised to see that all the pax bags had been loaded in the aft baggage compartment. The forward baggage bay was completely empty - demonstrating a lack of basic knowledge on weight and balance calcs.

I would imagine the pilots' passengers will go elsewhere for their lift to the TT races this year...
