Empty weight C.G. measurements
After the addition or deletion of equipment or accessories, repairs, painting,
or any change in the aircraft that could influence the weight and balance a
new weight and balance must be carried out. Aircraft certified as Standard
Category must have the weight and balance carried out by a licensed
Airframe Mechanic. Empty weight C.G. range is determined by reference
to the diagrams in sect. 6.8.9 of the flight manual. If the C.G. is out of
limits, adjustments may be made by ballasting or by relocating equipment
or accessories.
The result has to be entered in the flight manual section 6.8.8 and in the
aircraft logs. If the min. cockpit load or the max. flight mass without
waterballast have changed, the new values are to be entered in the cockpit
placard.
Weight and balance must be carried out at least every four years.
