It all depends on how much your plane weighs ready for flight. Empty weight, and the difference of 750 pounds. I believe the gross weight for the Firestar is 750.
It will still fly at that weight, but performs like a cub. That assumes that you will fit in the seat.

The older I get, the less tolerant I am of those who are intolerant of others.
