Empty mass is mass of empty aircraft with equipment and accessories in accordance with equipment<br />
list. Refer to Weight and Balance report for actual value.<br />
»Empty mass c.g. limits« diagram provides empty mass c.g. limits within which flight mass c.g. is kept<br />
in limits. Or differently, the diagram is used to find out cockpit load with respect to mass and c.g. of<br />
empty aircraft.<br />

Minimum cockpit load is obtained as follows:<br />
1. Locate c.g. of empty mass X CG.empty<br />
[mm] at the Left-hand vertical axis and draw a horizontal line<br />
through it.<br />
2. Locate empty mass G0 [kg] at the bottom horizontal axis and draw a vertical line through it.<br />
3. The intersection of two lines drawn determines minimum cockpit load. Interpolate between lines<br />
of constant minimum cockpit load (RED - 65, 70, 75 kg, ...), if necessary.<br />
NOTE: MIN. COCKPIT LOAD MAY BE REDUCED FOR 2.3 KG PER EACH LITRE OF W. BALLAST.
