Weight and Balance


Jabiru7252

Recommended Posts

The pilot operating handbook states the weight of a particular Jabiru is 339kg and the arm is 209mm and the moment is 70818. However, my calculation is 339 x 209 = 70851. I suspect an error in the POH but am wondering if any body has another explanation. I'll ask Jabiru and I will check my own POH when next at the club.

Well your arithmetic is right. But It could just be a rounding thing... The moment arm for 339kg and 70818 is 208.9.

 

In other news, the cht/egt worked great on some long flights. The relay-reading system enables the instrument to recover from interference or whatever. Sometimes a channel misreads, but then it reads again and fixes itself. Thanks...
