Revision Description:
Placard update
The airplane is complete, painted and all instruments and accessories installed.
The airplane is serviced with full engine oil, full engine coolant fluid, full brake fluid, fuel
tank drained and filled with the specified amount of the unusable fuel (TEXAN-2 litres-with
dual tanks).
In order to achieve an acceptable accuracy, the scales used for weighing should have the
following capacities:
Nose wheel
- Up to 100 kgs
Main wheel
– each
- Up to 120 kgs
1.
Put the airplane on the three scales,
2.
Block the wheels to prevent the airplane from rolling off the scales,
3.
Check that the airplane is level. The check is done by measuring on the cockpit
sidewall top, which should be 5º nose down when the airplane is level. Place
pieces of wood with different thickness under the wheels, as required to have the
airplane level. Close the canopy before reading the scales.
4.
Lower two plumb lines from the leading edge of the inboard wing section, left and
right wings. Mark the points on the floor and draw a straight line on the floor
(parallel to the wing span). This is the reference datum (RD),
5.
Measure the longitudinal distance from the RD to the axle of the nose wheel. This
is the value X1. Record the value in the weight report. This value should be with a
minus sign,
6.
Measure the longitudinal distance from the RD to the axle of the main wheels. This
is the value X2. Record the value in the weight report,
7.
Note the weight of each scale and record in the weight report,
