Hello fellows, take a look at this sample

I hope it can help to refresh your minds

regarding this subject.

REMEMBER!

This is only a SAMPLE, is not OFFICIAL and it is not accurate.

The main goal of this pages is to maintain ourselves
familiar with these charts and recall the calculations flow.
Hint: take those sheets and do it together, will be very easy.

Good Luck!

And fill in the fields with the numbers
acquired on the previous chart.

Here we can find the Cabin Index as follow:

Insert the number of Pax per cabin

And copy the indexes to the calculation table accordingly

On the next page we will perform the Cargo Index

 Weight & Balance
Copy the cargo weights from the loadsheet here
To find the index for each Compartment proceed as following:
1- On CPT 1 we have 2199Kg.
Find the best numbers to match this value.
Use the same procedure for
2- Take the found indexes and add. Cabin Index Corrections if is not full.
3- Repeat this steps for the other Compartments.
Now, copy the found indexes accordingly

On the Fuel Index Correction table

Find the index closest to the TO Fuel

Let’s finish this…

 Weight & Balance
As we have our ZFW, TOW, LIZFW and LITOW, we can draw the lines…

To find the CG, start from the crossing point of the lines to the %MAC line

1- ZFW LIZFW 82.3 LITOW 80.3

2- TOW
3- LIZFW
4- LITOW

5- MACZFW
6- MACTOW

Now copy the CG on

the Loadsheet
and the work is done!

At the first glance

it looks pretty fast,
but after 3 times it
will look like a turtle.
