Hi, this is a glitch I have noticed that is affecting GA aircraft. In the ‘pilot’ or ‘first officer’ sections in the weight and balance can be fitted with 2 people. This is affecting aircraft up to even the most recent TBM. See attached pictures:

In therory, you could have a 300+ pound pilot. So the weight is all good but I do see what you are talking about…
Maybe they have a kid sitting in their lap? 🤷🏼♂️

Yeah, but I don’t think that’s FAA standards.
An easy fix probably but I don’t even think this is worth the time.
All bug fixes are worth time for developers!

There’s no FAA standard on this, most GA aircraft probably have a max seat weight, where behind that the seat might give out at higher load factors.
As said above, maybe there are two people in a seat, maybe it’s a clown car, maybe it’s a really heavy person with a good sense of humor. IMO there are more important things to focus on.

Yea I see that it says 2 passengers for the first officer. Once it exceeds a certain weight it counts as two people and so on depending on your selection. Just a minor bug 😉
IF probably has a predetermined weight with 1 passenger. Once that weight exceeds, it becomes 2 passengers. But seriously, 1 passenger weighing over 135kg? That’s not logical.
