I'm looking at SR22 TM according to aopa "test flight" article useful load with full tanks is 496 lbs. Even with two big guys CG should be withing limits. However if I load SR22 with full tanks and two people I exceed maximum wight. So my question since we can't choose pilot/pax wight what pilot is weight assumption when we load people?

The aircraft is equipped with Air Conditioning, FIKI TKS, and the Oxygen system all add quite a bit of weight, reducing useful load. 

The weight of the passengers is visible if you navigate to the SR22 folder -> plugins/sr_systems/settings Inside settings.cfg there are pax1-pax4 as alterable weights. We plan to add configuring these weights in the UI shortly.
