When you weigh a plane, what is required for paper work? I imagine an equipment

Depends on the plane. For my 182 we just weighed it last week during
the annual. I completely drained the tanks, then ran the engine until
it died. Then we weighed it. Then we also figured the CG as per the
Cessna drawing. My plane is 50 pounds heavier than the last revision
and the CG is 1/2 inch farther forward. I have an equipment list that I
made on the computer.
