WEIGHT AND BALANCE

Refer to figure drawings.

INTRODUCTION

This Section describes the procedures for establishing of basic empty weight and
moment of the airplane.

Procedures for calculating the weight and moment for various loadings are also
provided. Sample forms

FIGURE 13-01

and

FIGURE 13-01A

are provided for

Reference. Record your aircraft's information on the blank forms.

NOTE:

both trike and taildragger versions are available in the FIGURES

manual.

Always check your weight and balance during your pre-flight planning. It is
recommended to check the data for landing and takeoff due to fuel weight change.

It is the responsibility of the pilot to ensure that the airplane is loaded properly.

AIRPLANE WEIGHING PROCEDURES

Preparation:

•

Inflate tires to recommended operating pressure

•

Parking brakes set

•

Drain all fuel

•

Service engine oil as required to obtain a normal indication
