This includes\u003cbr\u003einstructions for conducting adverse-loaded CG checks, also\u003cbr\u003eexplaining the way to determine the amount and location of\u003cbr\u003eballast needed to bring the CG within allowable limits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe unique requirements for helicopter weight and balance\u003cbr\u003econtrol are discussed, including the determination of\u003cbr\u003elateral CG and the way both lateral and longitudinal CG\u003cbr\u003echange as fuel is consumed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA chapter is included giving the methods and examples\u003cbr\u003eof solving weight and balance problems, using handheld\u003cbr\u003eelectronic calculators, E6-B flight computers, and a\u003cbr\u003ededicated electronic flight computer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAircraft Weight and Balance Handbook,\u003cbr\u003ehas been prepared in recognition of the importance of\u003cbr\u003eweight and balance technology in conducting safe and\u003cbr\u003eefficient flight. The objective of this handbook is twofold:\u003cbr\u003eto provide the Airframe and Powerplant Mechanic (A\u0026amp;P)\u003cbr\u003ewith the method of determining the empty weight and\u003cbr\u003eempty-weight center of gravity (EWCG) of an aircraft,\u003cbr\u003eand to furnish the flightcrew with information on loading\u003cbr\u003eand operating the aircraft to ensure its weight is within the\u003cbr\u003eallowable limit and the center of gravity (CG) is within the\u003cbr\u003eallowable range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAny time there is a conflict between the information in this\u003cbr\u003ehandbook and specific information issued by an aircraft\u003cbr\u003emanufacturer, the manufacturer’s data takes precedence\u003cbr\u003eover information in this handbook. Occasionally, the\u003cbr\u003eword must or similar language is used where the desired\u003cbr\u003eaction is deemed critical.
