Length of
MAC = 18.6m – 14m = 4.6m
CG change
required = 3% of 4.6m = 0.138m
Use formula
to find mass change between forward and aft cargo compartment:
Mass change = change of CG
Total mass distance moved
Mass change = change of CG x Total mass
distance moved
= 0.138 x 200000
10
= 2760kg
As CG
has moved aft then new cargo load distribution is:
FWD cargo:
6500 -2760 = 3740kg
AFT cargo:
4000+2760 = 6760kg
