Mass and Balance DA 62 AFM
6.1 INTRODUCTION
In order to achieve the performance and flight characteristics described in this Airplane
Flight Manual and for safe flight operation, the airplane must be operated within the
permissible mass and balance envelope.
The pilot is responsible for adhering to the permissible values for loading and center of
gravity (CG). In this, he should note the movement of the CG due to fuel consumption.
The permissible CG range during flight is given in Chapter 2.
The procedure for determining the flight mass CG position is described in this chapter.
Additionally, a comprehensive list of the equipment approved for this airplane exists
(Equipment List). The set of items marked as 'installed' constitutes the Equipment
Inventory.
Before the airplane is delivered, the empty mass and the corresponding CG position are
determined and entered in Section 6.3 - MASS AND BALANCE REPORT.
NOTE
Following equipment changes, the new empty mass and the
corresponding CG position must be determined by calculation
or by weighing.
Following repairs or repainting, the new empty mass and the
corresponding CG position must be determined by weighing.
Empty mass, empty mass CG position, and the empty mass
moment must be certified in the Mass and Balance Report
by authorized personnel.
