Principle of Turing Moments
* Clockwise (?)
* Anti-clockwise (?)
Principles of Turning Moments
Clockwise (Positive)
Anti-clockwise (Negative)
Manufacturer must weight x out of y aircraft made
Manufacturer must weight 1 out of 10 aircraft made
If given total moment and total mass, how would you calculate CofG?
CofG = Total Moment / Total Mass
What must be provided before each flight and what does it contain?
Statement of conformity must be provided before each flight, called a load sheet.
* Datum, Arm, C of G, C of G Limits
What is meant by Basic equipment?
Basic equipment is the Unconsumable fluid and equipment used in every flight
What is meant by Basic weight?
Basic weight is the Weight of the plane plus unconsumable fluid and fuel
What is meant by the Variable load?
Variable load
* Crew
* Their equipment/Removable items
What is meant by Disposable load?
Disposable load
* PAX
* Fuel
Where can Weight and balance requirments be found? (BCAR)
Weight and balance requirements can be found in BCAR section A chapters A5-4, A6-4 and A7-10
Weighing Interval?
Every 4 years
