Wiz thanks for the nice explanatory reply , its making more sense to me now , actually i'm in the process of writing some code for a loadsheet as a personal project (amateur programmer).I have the moments in the form of indices and the total effect as an index , i have all the weights too,what i dont have is the mean leading edge and chord . I'll try and get that info now

quote "Find out where that is, divide it's distance from the mean leading edge by the mean chord and you have a % MAC" unquote

i have the distance effect in terms of indices , i suppose....i need to get the mean leading edge now ? can you explain what you said ( quotes) ? that would be great

edit : what parameters do i need besides the ones i have
