Really 120KGs? I am about to have the retrofit aux tank done on our EC135T2 and ECD never said 120kgs ballast required in the front.... they said 40kgs max after I queried them on the C of G as I have my weather radar in the nose and unable to use the Front Trim Weight kit... AND they never said anything about an aft trim kit in the Fenestron...
Am I in for a shock once I fill up the Aux tank?
