For a Knighthawk BC:

Does anyone know what the manual suggests for the maximum single tank size? If not, what is the max size you have used with a Knighthawk?

thanks,

David

ANY sized single tank! It's got 45lbs of lift which is PLENTY for ANYTHING. 45lbs of lift is a VERY standard wing size for DOUBLES! It's really overkill in a single tank configuration BC.

I can do single Steel 100's NP with my BP/W with 30lbs of lift, and I'd do 120's if I needed with 30lbs lift.

Ooops, sorry, you asked what the manual says, and I have no idea, but the answer I gave is still valid. :D
 
You may be taking unnecessary chances with anything larger than 130s.
"T" bottles are definately out. ;)
