9. Find the values for the total weight (1512 lbs and 1605 lbs) and the total moment (14583 in lbs and 17600
in. lbs) in the center of gravity diagram. Since they are within the limitation range, the loading is
permissible.
* Combined Baggage: For convenience of calculation use this line if baggage is to be located in
both the baggage compartment and the baggage extension. The combined total of the baggage
must not exceed 44 lbs (20 kg).
