I didn't want to hijack the currecnt load sheet thread with this slightly off topic question . .
If I have a load sheet from a POH, is it possible to construct a C of G envelope for the same craft, without knowing the arms of the various stations? I dont know what the Index Units, or original datum are either.
The sheet starts off with ''empty moment'' ,then moves down to 'pilot & passenger'', ''fuel'', then ''luggage'' and then into the total weight area, with a shaded area showing acceptable W & B.
I just find it easier to use . . . the C of G envelope , I mean 'cos I have a program on my PDA!
( I think I read a thread asking the opposite question a while back ... )
Cheers
