I have just started a newer company in fspassengers. I decided to use Flight 1's BN-2 islander. Great little airplane by the way. I started my company in Tahiti for some shorter island hopping runs. This leads me to two questions if someone could help. First is there a penalty for taking off overweight? Not severely but some. I mean other than the obvious handling issues. Next is there a problem with not taking all the passengers at the gate? The bn-2 has a very limited capacity and sometimes the 9 passengers and there luggage just won't fit. Where as if I could only take say eight I would have enough room. Will fspassengers penalize me for not taking all nine? Thanks for any help.
