*Loading graph is shown with the seats in the fourth notch from the most
forward position. If C.G. falls near the forward or aft limit, occupant seat
positions are important; and moments should be calculated by multiplying
pilot and passenger weight by appropriate arm aft datum (see Figure
6-14), rather than determined by the loading graph.
