winter or summer

[gdub]

for you guys that fly the props?

Are you using winter or summer weights for passengers?

the answer can be found in you OPS Manual.

I know what my airline is using, I am curious as to what everyone else is using.

In previous experiences, April 1 was the cutover date to summer weights, and Oct 1 was cutover to winter.

Now that has changed to May 1 and Nov 1.

Whatever is in the AC120-27 and the 8400 is what should be in your Ops Manual.

Summer Weights = May 1 through October 31

I can't ever remember...

My company uses May thru October for summer weights, but it seems like for the last 5 years I still can't remember and have to dig out my FOM every April Fool's Day just to make sure...
