By entering the weight and arm values, the aera795/796 can calculate the total weight, moment, and center of gravity (CG).Before entering the various figures, the empty weight of the airplane and the arm (or“station”) for each weight should be determined. These figures should be determinedusing the pilot’s operating handbook for the airplane, which also notes the weightlimitations and fore/aft CG limits. Compare those figures to the values calculated bythe aera 795/796.To perform weight and balance calculations:1) From the Main Menu, touch Tools > Weight/Bal2) Touch the datafields to enter the desired weights and arms (or “stations”).The calculated moment, weight, and CG figures appear at the bottom ofthe screen. Keep in mind that the “Aircraft” (empty weight/arm) figuresmust be entered as a reference to calculate a valid moment, weight, andCG.3) To empty the aircraft, touch Menu > Empty Aircraft.
