Just a guess, but I am probably carrying about 138 more pounds in the fuel
tanks than the 182L (65 gallon tanks?). This aircraft is a 1979 Cessna 182Q with 88 gallons of useable fuel. Thanks for eveyones feedback! Item Gallons Capacity Weight Capacity Arm Moment Empty Aircraft 1842.15 35.4719362 65344.62 Main Fuel 88 88 528 47 24816 Main Baggage 25 60 97 2425 Aft Baggage 0 20 115 0 Seating Row 1 430 37 15910 Seating Row 2 0 74 0 Totals 88 88 2825.15 38.4 108495.62 Allowable 2950 38.34 to 48.5 % of Allowable 96% 0% Status OK OK Zero Fuel 0 88 2297.15 36.43 83679.62 Zero Fuel Allow 33.44 to 48.5 Verify all numbers with the Pilot Operating Handbook I'm suspicious of your calculations or W&B info. In my 182L, there is no way I can get out of the envelope with 430# forward, nothing aft, regardless of fuel load. MikeM Skylane '1MM |
