you better check your figures jake, thats 2 lbs per sq in

Should be oz. / sq. ft. Your plane with the figures you gave is 40.32
I wouldn't call it cranky but it's about 8-10 pounds heavier than Extra's and Yaks with similar wing area. Def. going to land faster
My 35% has 2009 squares and weighs about 28 pounds.
