Weight & Balance
page 6-3
Example:
First the Basic Empty Moment (example 108,9 mkg) must be taken from the
respective Basic Empty Weight and Balance Form (Wägebericht). The graph
must be entered with this value to the row PILOT. Here the weight of the
pilot has to be taken into consideration (for 90 kg about 9 units to the right),
the next lower row takes care of the weight of the passenger (for 50 kg about
5 units to the right). The weight of the forward baggage need not to be
applied here, it must only be observed by calculating total weight.The next
row is for the fuel (1 unit for 28,3 kg).
Draw a vertical line from this point to the lower graph and a horizontal line
with the actual takeoff weight in this graph. The intersection of those lines
indicates the actual C.G., it must lie within the thick lines indicating the
forward and aft C.G. limits.
