Your AUW = 4800 kg and total moment = 604800. The CG is at STA 126, with CG limits between STA 123 and 128. You need to offload 200 kg from STA 161. What station will the new CG for the aircraft be at?

• 124

• 120

• 130

• 129

• 121

If a Station has a negative value, eg: STA -40, this means that...

• the station is in front of the datum

• the station is behind the datum

• weight must be removed from that station

• weight can be added to that datum

Given: Gross weight = 1838 kg with CH at STA 27, MCTOW = 4000 kg. At which station can you load 240 kg of cargo to put the aircraft CG at STA 35?

• 96

• 27

• 86

• 43

Zero Fuel Weight is equal to...
