Weight and Balance Procedure
Take the basic empty weight, moment and arm from the weight and balance report in
your airplane’s POH. The empty weight is for zero fuel.
To the above data add the weight and moment for all pilots, passengers, baggage and
fuel. Enter this information on the Weight and Balance form. A sample is provided
below:
The moment for fuel, pilots, passengers, and cargo is calculated by multiplying the
weight for each item by the arm. The arms can be found in the table below.
The moments for all items including the empty airplane are then added. In the sample the
total is 325,010. This gives the ramp weight and moment.
