Weight and Balance on 737NGs
Hello all,
I am currently trying to teach myself how to weight and balance 736 73W & 73H aircraft. I am simply missing the ability to calculate 2 parts of the trim sheet that my airline uses. (I am in customer service, not ops by the way). I am looking to calculate Trim 1-10 and % MAC. Also i would assume that the limits fwd/aft do not change based on aircraft type. (ie the limites of a 73W will not change.)
I have the PAX Weight, GTOW, ZFW and all other values, including OEW of the fleet.
Any help in how to calculate the Trim and % mac would be apreciated.
Thanks
Michael

As there is no "standard" for trim sheets, you might like to consider de-identifying the document and posting it for us to review. Then we can answer your question without any difficulty.
It is a futile exercise to try without looking at the specific document.
