WEIGHT AND MOMENT
(WT/MOM)
This function is similar to the weight/arm function. However,
flight manuals for some aircraft describe weight and balance
problems in terms of moments. Sporty's E6B-F will retain and
display cumulative totals for center of gravity, gross weight
and moment given weight and moment for each item and
reduction factor. Reduction Factor is 100. As an example, use
the following table for entry:
