WEIGHT
AND
BALANCE.
The following information
will
enable
you to
operate your
Cessna
within
the
prescribed weight
and
center
of
gravity
limitations.
To
figure
the
weight
and
balance
for
your particular airplane,
use the
Sample Prob-
lem,
Loading Graph,
and
Center
of
Gravity Moment Envelope
as
follows:
Take
the
licensed empty weight
and
moment from
the
Weight
and
Balance
and
Installed Equipment Data
sheet
(or
changes
noted
on FAA
Form
337)
carried
in
your airplane, and
write
them down
in the
column
titled
YOUR AIRPLANE
on the
Sample Loading Problem.
NOTE
The Weight
and
Balance
and
Installed Equipment Data
sheet
is
included
in the
aircraft
file.
In
addition
to
the
licensed empty weight
and
moment noted
on
this
sheet,
the e.g. arm
(fuselage
station)
is
also
shown,
but
need
not be
used
on the
Sample Loading Problem.
The moment shown
on the
sheet
must
be
divided
by
1000
and
this
value used
as the
moment/1000
on the
loading problem.
Use
the
Loading Graph
to
determine
the
moment/1000
for
each
addi-
tional
item
to be
carried, then
list
these
on the
loading problem.
