Model G58
Periodic weighing of the airplane may be required to keep the
Basic Empty Weight current. All changes to the airplane affect-
ing weight and balance are the responsibility of the airplane's
owner and/or operator.
1. Three jack points are provided for weighing: two on the
wing front spar at Fuselage Station 83.1 and one on the
aft fuselage at Fuselage Station 271.0.
2. Fuel should be drained prior to weighing. Tanks are
drained from the regular drain ports with the airplane in
static ground attitude. When tanks are drained, 5.7
pounds of trapped fuel remain in the airplane at Fuse-
lage Station 81.6. The remainder of the unusable fuel to
be added to a drained system is 30.3 pounds at Fuse-
lage Station 78.5.
3. Engine oil must be at the full level or completely drained.
Total engine oil when full is 45 pounds at Fuselage Sta-
tion 43.
4. To determine airplane configuration at time of weighing,
installed equipment is checked against the airplane
equipment list or superseding forms. All installed equip-
ment must be in its proper place during weighing.
5. The airplane must be longitudinally and laterally level
with the landing gear fully extended at the time of weigh-
ing. Leveling screws are located on the left side of the
fuselage at Fuselage Station 152.25 (approximately).
Longitudinally level attitude is determined with a plumb
bob. Laterally level attitude is obtained when the vertical
distance from each wing tip to the floor is equal.
