Default Takeoff distance calculations?


"Tauno Voipio"

Probably recalculated somewhere down the line after mods in panel or
other stuff.

I've never seen an official POH for the 68' Arrow, so I'm guessing they
were delivered with the Owners handbook, and the essential papers (like
W&B) in a binder or something.

Anyone know the facts around these things?

You need:

- the empty weight and CG location from the weighing certificate,
- the max. gross weight,
- allowed CG limits,
- moment arms of:
- from seats,
- rear seats,
- luggage locker, and
- fuel.

If the system in Norway resembles ours (Finland), you ought to
have a weighing certificate which is not older than 5 years.
The weighing will take care of any actual changes in empty
weight and CG position.

The rest of information should be obtainable from the manual.

Hi, Yes, I have this W&B paper.

It has been correctly calculated, though not the last 5 years, but no large
mod since then anyway.
