Widebody cargo loading
(At first I accidentally placed this thread into another topic, I repeat it here now)
Just curious: How is the cargo loading/C.G calculation is done on specialized cargo aircraft like the 747F, -400F or MD-11? Is it done "manually", I mean using laptops or purpose built handheld computers? Or have these aircraft got some onboard C.G system that senses/indicates the actual C.G?
Is the operation of the cargo handling/C.G. systems included in the AOM or in a separate "cargo master manual"?
Many thanks Midnight Riders ( I've always been impressed by your work)
