WEIGHT & BALANCE
Weight & Balance may be used during pre-flight preparations to verify the weight
and balance conditions of the aircraft. By entering the weight and arm values, the aera
660 can calculate the total weight, moment, and center of gravity (CG).
Before entering the various figures, the empty weight of the airplane and the arm (or
“station”) for each weight should be determined. These figures should be determined
using the pilot’s operating handbook for the airplane, which also notes the weight
limitations and fore/aft CG limits. Compare those figures to the values calculated by
the aera 660.
Fuel units specified in an Aircraft Profile will carry over to the Weight & Balance page.
Once the Weight & Balance page is set to use the same fuel units as in the current
Aircraft Profile, the Weight & Balance page will inherit the setting from the Profile.
