WW,
I SWEAR I've seen that exact post from you SOMEWHERE.
(Mostly because I've done roughly half those things BECAUSE I read that post *heh*)
In either event, I'm shooting for the 14 lbs range, which looks quite doable...so, even if I'm a full POUND over that, I still ouoght to be in the "at 15 lbs it flies great!" range.
