3.27 Misplaced movable ballast – flight with passenger
If the take-off with passenger occurs in with a misplaced movable
ballast in the rear:
• continue flying, the aircraft can be significantly more sensitive to
control inputs and will have a reduced stability margin
• use extra caution when making steering inputs
• do not release the side-stick
• do not perform stalls
It is the pilot's responsibility to check the loading of the aeroplane before
each flight, determine the position of the movable weight and check that
the movable weight is in that position.
In the event of a misplaced movable ballast, consider a precautionary
landing at a suitable airport and moving the ballast to the correct position.
