6.4. FLIGHT MASS(WEIGHT) AND CENTER OF GRAVITY
The following data enables the pilot to operate the DV 20 within the required mass (weight) and
center of gravity limitations.
The following diagrams:
Figure 6.3
Mass (Weight)
&
Balance Diagram
Figure 6.4
Permissible Center of Gravity Range
and permissible Flight Mass (Weight) Moment
Figure 6.5
Calculation of Loading Condition
are to be used for calculations of the flight mass (weight) and the center of gravity as follows:
1 .
The empty mass (weight) and the empty mass (weight) moment of the airplane should be
taken from the Mass (Weight)
&
Balance Report and entered into the form "Calculation of
Loading Condition" (Figure 6.5) in the columns identified with "Your DV 20".
2.
Using the Mass (Weight)
&
Balance Diagram (see Figure 6.3) determine the moment for
each item to be loaded, and enter it in the respective column in Figure 6.5.
3.
Add the masses (weights) and the moments of each column (items 4 and 6 in Figure 6.5) and
enter the sum in Figure 6.4 "Permissible CG Range and Permissible Flight Mass (Weight)
Moment" to check if the values are within the permissible limits of the loading range.
