G1000 WEIGHT PLANNING
The Garmin G1000 is equipped with a tool that allows the crew to quickly
determine the gross weight of the KODIAK 100. This tool can be accessed
on the MFD. On power-up, the MFD defaults to the Weight Planning page.
The Weight Planning tool will not compute the aircraft Center of Gravity nor
will it produce any moments for Center of Gravity computations. The Weight
Planning tool has two sections, Payload (LB) and Fuel (LB). The elds are
described below as an entry eld or a calculation eld. An entry eld is
selectable data that is entered by the crew. A calculation eld is not selectable
by the crew and is automatically calculated by the G1000 from the data
entered. For operational guidance of the Weight Planning tool, refer to the
Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide (190-00645-XX).
PAYLOAD (LB) ENTRY SECTION
The Payload (LB) section allows the crew to enter the weight of crew,
passengers, and cargo. Listed below are the elds listed in the Payload (LB)
section with short denitions:
Basic Empty Weight (Entry Field) - The basic empty weight is the aircraft
weight not including passengers, fuel, crew, or cargo. The Basic Empty
Weight number is retained and stored in the system after each ight. Refer
to “Section 6” of this manual to obtain a current Basic Empty Weight.
Pilot and Stores (Entry Field) - This is the weight of the pilot, copilot, and
ight gear (charts, additional gear).
Basic Operating Weight (Calculation Field) - Automatic calculation of Basic
Empty Weight and Pilot and Stores.
Passenger(s) Weight (Entry Field) - The crew has the ability to select up
to 9 passengers. The Weight Planning tool allows the crew to specify the
average weight of the passengers in a range of 0 LB to 990 LB. The crew
has the discretion of adding the weight of the bags to each passenger or
adding them in the Cargo Weight entry eld.
Cargo Weight (Entry Field) - This is the weight of the total cargo on-board.
NOTE: All weight planning page data elds display data rounded to the
nearest 10 pounds or 5 kilograms.
NOTE: When returning from Reversionary mode, the MFD will default to
the map page and not the weight planning page.
