CAUTION! Each newly installed part or appliance must be registered in the upper table. Also,<br />
new total weight and lever arm of CG values must be entered and position of CG re-determined.<br />
Furthermore, the moment must be recalculated. This is rather easy to do. First multiply the new<br />
part’s weight by it’s lever arm measured from the reference point (wing’s leading edge). Then<br />
sum up all momentums and divide the sum by the new total weight.<br />
WARNING! Aircraft's safe center of gravity position ranges between 7.7'' (195 mm) and 14.5''<br />
(368 mm) aft of datum and is not critically affected by cockpit crew weight.<br />
WARNING! Absolute safe measure for the amount of luggage is 55 lbs (25 kg). The actual<br />
amount of luggage you can safely transport depends on the centre of gravity of empty aircraft.<br />
