Dan, we'd probably have to ask Mayf to tell us how heavy the tank  
might be when full of air.  I expect the heaviness of the tank due to  
the air is a function of the time of day when the tank was filled,  
and also maybe the altitude above average terrain of the filling  
station.  Then factor in the distant relative humidity and the  
specific gravity of the situation -- well, let's leave it to Mayf.   
Have a nice day.
