I found this off of Bonanza information. Obviously, it well depend on what type of plane, the mix ratio, etc.




System weight varies but 35 to 40 pounds is typical. The fluid weighs 9.2 pounds per gallon, resulting in a full system weight of 90 to 110 pounds. When icing will not be a factor, draining the fluid will increase the useful load by 55 to 70 pounds.

The docs we have for the hawker show 9/gal also.
