USING FORWARD BALLAST TO MANAGE AFT EMPTY CG
POSITION FOR THE DUAL CONFIGURATION.
a.
A second battery is standard and will be used as permanent Ballast.
b.
A Hopper Rinse System is standard equipment and must be filled with water
whenever the rear seat is occupied by a crewmember. The water becomes
removable ballast if the rear seat is not occupied.
c.
If the aircraft was delivered with a forward ballast box with a designated required
weight, that ballast must be installed when the rear cockpit is occupied. The
maximum weight of this ballast box is 100#, and any capacity above the required
weight may be used for optional addition forward ballast. If the airplane
configuration is changed so as to affect the weight and balance, the required
ballast tank weight must be adjusted accordingly to maintain an aft CG. of not
more than 30.5 inches at 10,500# and no more than 31.0 inches at 7,600#, with
straight line variation between.
d.
A baggage compartment is standard with capacity to hold up to 100# of
removable Ballast, if required to keep the airplane within aft CG limitations.
