Hi!

For some reason, the POH is missing.

Probable got damaged and destroyed many years back.

I am an owner of this plane, and can't figure out the W&B....

Doesn't sound too good does it...:-)

Anyway, so far, I have only operated it alone (85kg) or with a friend.
I know you should always calculate W&B, and I have based on a generic Arrow
document, but I wanted to make it correct.
One of the other owners sent me a W&B sheet, and this is the one that gives
the headache...

The Archer one that was mailed to me from Bob (thankx man!) makes all look a
lot more correct.

If I put myself and wife in the front, fill the tanks (wife is 65kg by the
way) then the W&B sheet I have tell me the CG is way too much forward.
I don't believe this, as I have flown like this many time, and the plane has
always handled as you'd think it should.

Would a maintenance facility be able to calculate a new graph for me?

Anyone on this group with a 1968 Arrow that can verify to me that two people
weighing approx 155 kg combined and full fuel will be legal in this plane?

Thanks for all replies, and thanks to Bob and Victor for emailing me their
W&B charts!

Hi!

Anyone got a default WB graph for an 180 hp Arrow?
I am entering info into a computer programme, and can't seem to get it
right....

The ones I have tell me that I can't fly with myself and my wife in the
front, and my son (age 12) in the back with full fuel.

Can this be right?
I did a calculation manually a while back, and it seamed ok, and been
flying like this a while, so I'm thinking I have some messed up numbers.
Or is the 180 hp Arrow simply impossible to load?

To adults in front and full fuel is not possible either according to my
programme.....

Any ideas?

Can you borrow the POH for the plane you want to fly. Section 6 has it
all.
