Hi:
weight and balance:
As part of the PPL program, the EMB 120 checklist involves the weight and balance of the plane. Would someone please look at this plane--737-300 and 737-500
I need tech support here. I have copied the specs from the CFG file below. There is no provision for payload and when you enter an figure and the try to balance with a reduction in FOB the "balance ball" goes almost beyond the front of the plane indicating it is extremely front heavy so much so as to cause it to dip sevely on rotation. These perimeters I believe are erred. Anyone know??
[WEIGHT_AND_BALANCE]
reference_datum_position= 0.000, 0.000, 0.000
empty_weight_CG_position= 0.000, 0.000, 0.000
max_number_of_stations=50
station_load.0=0.000000,0.000000,0.000000,0.000000
empty_weight= 89445.000
empty_weight_roll_MOI= 1854568.000
empty_weight_pitch_MOI= 1794268.000
empty_weight_yaw_MOI= 2209567.000
empty_weight_coupled_MOI= 1300.000
max_gross_weight= 125021.999
CG_forward_limit= 0.000
CG_aft_limit= 1.000
Thanks
