6.2 WEIGHT AND BALANCEREPORT
Procedure
to be used to determine the Centre o f Gravity position:
- The aircraft
MUST be weighed fitted with all equipments, accessories, engine oil, coolant
and
WITHOUT FUEL;
NOTE:
all the fuel MUST be drained accurately.
-
Put the aircraft on three weight measuring equipments ( each under each wheel o f the landing
gear);
- Put the aircraft in the flight level position by using a level fitted o n the aircraft' s fuselage, o n the
horizontal plane where doors will be closed;
-Record
the three weight measuring equipments readings: the nose wheel weight will be called
Pl,
the left wheel weight P2, the right wheel weight P3;
- By using a plumbing wire fix ed to the leading edge, measure the distance D l between the
projection on the floor o f the leading edge and the nose wheel axle, and the distance D2 between the
same projected point and the main landing gear axle;
- By filling out the table below, make the calculations and find out the CG position. The airplane is
in the correct balance
if
the line o f the actual weight and the line o f the actual total moment cross
inside the white area.
