don't plan on being able to sit in the flight deck jumpseat if the flight is full. Between bags and fuel it will probably be an overweight scenario. I was catching a ride out of base one day when I used to work there on a flight with one seat open. The captain struggled to complete the W&B form while the FO held the whiz wheel like it was a toy and didn't know what to do with it. The CA said I could ride but my suitcase could not. What a sh*t show.
