Later flight was going to be the same, so I ended up renting a car and driving. Didn't see the Captain again, but he could have told me the flight was weight restricted at the counter. Yes you 9E guys are still welcome on my airplane, and I've had quite a few lately. But the first one is going to get an earfull.
