* NOTE use empty aircraft weight (EAW) and empty aircraft CG(mm) values found in the WBR
document for the specific aircraft.
CAUTION! Each newly installed part or appliance must be registered in the upper table. Also,
the new total weight and lever arm of CG values must be entered and the position of CG re-de-
termined. Furthermore, the moment must be recalculated. This is rather easy to do. First mul-
tiply the new part’s weight by it’s lever arm measured from the reference point (wing’s leading
edge). Then sum up all moments and divide the sum by the new total weight.
WARNING! The aircraft's in-flight safe center of gravity position ranges between 8 ⁄’’ (220
mm) and 14’’ (355 mm) aft of datum and is not critically affected by cockpit crew weight.
WARNING! Storing luggage or any other items in the battery bays is strictly prohibited!
