Despite the choppy air, I completed a 1.2 hr flight at max gross weight (1440) using these sandbags. Got approximate numbers for clean stall speed (57 mph) nominal climb rate/airspeed (70 mph/750 fpm) and 1/2 and full flap landings.

Performance numbers look good. Real world data is always better than design specifications.
I would hate to get ramp checked with that! Lol!
