Yessiree - that's correct. You don't rack up 10,000 and who knows how many hours in a variety of airframes, be check ride certified on just about anything that doesn't carry bombs or guns and consult on many things aviation related without having proven to be a safe and reliable aviator
My old man has been known to leave startled passangers on the side of an airstrip in Armpit Africa because they wouldn't comply with take off weight requirements
You be surprised how quick people ditch the extra crap when they are faced with the prospect of being house guests to the Hutus or Tootsies if they get left behind
