Basic Course in Aircraft Weight and Balance Este curso é ministrado em inglês

Course details

Pilots deal with aircraft loading situations on every flying day of your working life. This course considers the inter-relationship between aircraft loading and other related subjects such as aircraft performance and flight planning and the very important airmanship aspects of proper aircraft loading. In general terms, the ways in which the centre of gravity of both un-laden and laden aircraft can be determined and checked as being within safe limits will be discussed.
