A primary reference and step by step procedures tool for understanding and performing weight & balance measurements on large and small aircraft and helicopters. It takes you step by step through the proper procedures to prepare, position, weigh, determine moment arms, and perform the simple math required to compute the precise CG location in various loading configurations, and fuel levels. It is highly illustrated, detailed enough to be meaningful, yet simple enough to be understood.
