WEIGHT AND BALANCE
The following information will enable you to operate your Cessna within
the prescribed weight and center of gravity limitations. To figure weight
and balance, use the sample Loading Problem, Weight and Moment
Tables, and Center of Gravity Moment Envelope as follows:
1. Take the basic empty weight and moment from appropriate
weight and balance records carried in your airplane, and enter
them in the column titled, "YOUR AIRPLANE" on the Sample
Loading Problem.
NOTE
In addition to the basic empty weight and moment noted on
these records, the C.G. arm (fuselage station) is also
shown, but need not be used on the Sample Loading
Problem. The moment which is shown must be divided by
1000 and this value used as the moment11000 on the
loading problem.
2. Use the Weight and Moment Tables to determine the moment/
1000 for each additional item to be carried, then list these on the
loading problem.
NOTE
Information on the Fuel Weight And Moment Tables is
based on average fuel density at fuel temperatures of 60°F.
However, fuel weight increases approximately 0.1
lblgal for
each 25°F decrease in fuel temperature. Therefore, when
environmental conditions are such that the fuel temperature
is different than shown in the chart heading, a new fuel
weight calculation should be made using the 0.1
Iblgal
increase in fuel weight for each 25°F decrease in fuel
temperature. As an example, the fuel chart for Jet A fuel
indicates an average density of 6.7
lbslgal.
