How to Calculate Weight & Balance – AeroGuard Flight Training Center

Run through an example flight to calculate the weight and balance of the airplane and decide if the flight is safe to operate. Understand the Weight, Arm and Moment relationships to calculate the Ramp Weight, Takeoff Weight and Landing Weight and Centers of Gravity. By comparing these figures to the CG envelope you can decide if the flight is safe to operate.
