Study Notes
Weight and Balance in Airplanes
- A new weight and balance report must be created when new equipment like a radio or a GPS is installed in an airplane.
Creating a New Weight and Balance Report
- A possible method to create a new weight and balance report is to mathematically account for the weight and location of new equipment.
Overlooked Factors in Weight and Balance
- The weight of items added to the airplane over time, such as dirt, grime, and corrosion, can be overlooked when the weight and location of new equipment are mathematically accounted for.
Weight Gain in Airplanes
- Over time, almost all aircraft tend to gain weight.
- Examples of how an airplane can gain weight over time include: • Dirt and grime accumulation • Corrosion • Addition of new paint or coatings • Installation of new interior components or accessories
