CESSNA SECTION 6
MODEL 182T WEIGHT & BALANCE / EQUIPMENT LIST
NOTE
Loading Graph information for the pilot, passengers and
baggage is based on seats positioned for average
occupants and baggage loaded in the center of the baggage
areas as shown on the Loading Arrangements diagram. For
loadings which may differ from these, the Sample Loading
Problem lists fuselage stations for these items to indicate
their forward and aft C.G. range limitations (seat travel and
baggage area limitation). Additional moment calculations,
based on the actual weight and C.G. arm (fuselage station)
of the item being loaded, must be made if the position of the
load is different from that shown on the Loading Graph.
Total the weights and moments/1000 and plot these values on
the Center of Gravity Moment Envelope to determine whether the
point falls within the envelope, and if the loading is acceptable.
BAGGAGE TIE-DOWN
A nylon baggage net having tie-down straps is provided as
standard equipment to secure baggage in the area aft of the rear
seat (baggage areas, A, B and C). Eight eyebolts serve as attaching
points for the net. A placard on the baggage door defines the
weight limitations in the baggage areas.
When baggage area A is utilized for baggage only, the four
forward eyebolts should be used. When only baggage area B is
used, the eyebolts just aft of the baggage door and the eyebolts
above or below the shelf area may be used. When only baggage
area C is utilized, the eyebolts above and below the shelf area
should be used. When the cabin floor (baggage areas A and B) is
utilized for baggage, the four forward eyebolts and the eyebolts
mounted above or below the shelf area should be used. When
there is baggage in areas B and C, the eyebolts just aft of the
baggage door and the eyebolts above and below the shelf area
should be used. When baggage is contained in all three areas, the
two forward eyebolts on the cabin floor, the eyebolts just aft of the
baggage door or the eyebolts at the bottom of the forward portion of
the shelf area and the eyebolts near the upper forward surface of
the shelf area should be used.
