Hi everyone,
Looking for some help from the brains trust. In the event of a question that has a scenario where the aircraft CoG is out of limits and requires you to work out the minimum ballast required at a particular station to be within limits, how do you work this out if it’s not a multiple choice question? Is there a formula ?
Cheers
TB

Re: ATPL perf and loading question
I use many moons ago :
X=W x D
----
d
x = weight to be moved
W= total weight of helicopter
D = distance the C of G is out
d = distance between old and new locations of load moved
X=W x D

d
x = weight to be moved
W= total weight of helicopter
D = distance the C of G is out
d = distance between old and new locations of load moved
