Perfomance, Mass & balance
 
Hello Chums,

I am looking for an online resource that will provide quality images of perfomance, mass and balance charts for a light aircraft.

Any offers

cheers

Any light aircraft? The UK CAA publish specimen charts for a light single, a light twin and a two-engine jet.

CAP696
CAP697
CAP698

Thanks Alex,

Ideally I'm looking for Piper Warrior charts as the ones in the POH are a bit scrappy. I'm after a decent electronic fomat to create a presentation for a FIC renewal.


cheers

Playing devil's advocate, will you get credit for impressive presentation of data not available to a student pilot?

.. from one who has designed more of these things than I care to remember .. one BIG caveat for young chaps .. ensure that the loading system you use (trimsheet, whatever) is compatible with the entry data for your aircraft's current weigh data.

Most trimsheet designers (especially) use a datum position for the sheet which is different to that typically nominated by the OEM in the POH. Mix OEM datum entry data with a non-standard datum trimsheet, for example, and you could end up very, very embarrassed ...
