Effect of incorrect weights on ATR
A question for ATR pilots:
If an error is made on weights, such that the actual weight of baggage is understated, at what weight variation would that error (a) become noticeable and (b) lead to controllability issues?
Based on an assumption of about 60-80kg, what effect would this have, assuming all baggage in rear hold.
