  Computations It is imperative that all pilots understand the basic principles of weight and balance determination. The following methods of computation can be applied to any object or vehicle for which weight and balance information is essential. By determining ... this weight in such a manner that the entire mass of the loaded aircraft is balanced around a point (CG) that must be located within specified limits. The point at which an aircraft balances can be determined by locating…
