SR wt & bal
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 10:26 am
In completing the wt & bal for my SR certification, I see that the manual
gives arms for rear seat passengers as 46" and baggage as 49". I would assume
that the rear seat arm means the center of the rear seats, and baggage arm
the center of the compartment. Of course, if this is true, the baggage compt.
would be under the seat. My actual measurements show the rear seat to have a
49" arm and the center of the baggage compt. at 89". Am I missing
something? 89" compared to the published 49" could make for some serious out of aft
c/g loading!
Incidentally, SR N96CS (SR#065) received its airworthiness certificate today
(after nearly 8 years of building) and should be in the air this week.
