6.6.2 Weight & balance charts
On the next pages you will find two charts to determine the
aircraft center of gravity and different weights during flight (take-
off weight up to zero fuel weight).
Procedure in steps:
1. Choose the correct chart
for a PILOT ONLY FLIGHT (1 OCCUPANT) - with maximum of 15 kg
of baggage in the rear seat and a normal loading in the baggage
compartment.
or;
for a FLIGHT WITH PASSENGER (2 OCCUPANTS) - use this table
when you have more than 25 kg in/on the rear seat.
2. Draw vertical “weight-lines”
for weights loaded in each respective compartment;
Front Seat, Rear Seat, Baggage Compartment and Fuel
(beware that the front seat compartment starts at 55kg; the
minimum pilot weight)
Fill in weights into the side table, calculate and draw zero-fuel-
weight and take-off-weight lines (it must be always less than or
equal to 600kg).
3. Start your next line at “Moment Empty Aircraft” at the left side
of the table. Check that the Moment Empty Aircraft is correct
for the airplane you are going to fly
