Question 1

Crew

Answer 1

Can use;

• Actual Masses
• Standard masses including hand baggage:
  Flight Crew: 85kg
  Cabin Crew: 75kg
• Other standard masses acceptable to EASA

Additional crew baggage must be weighed and its position recorded for CG calculation purposes

Question 2

Passengers

Answer 2

Infants: Children less than two years old, if they have their own seat 35kg, if they are carried by an adult, their mass is already accounted for

Children: Older than 2 but less than 12 years old - 35kg

Adults: Older than 12 (masses - see table as it changes depending on seats but ~84kg)

Checked Baggage; 19 seats all checked baggage must be weighed
20< standard masses can be used

Excessive Actual Masses - Determine the masses by weighing or apply an adequate mass increment
