Weight & Balance
Weight & Balance can be used during your pre-
flight preparations to verify the weight and balance
conditions for your aircraft. By entering the weight
and arm values on this page, the GPSMAP 96/96C
can calculate the total weight, moment and center of
gravity (CG) gures, ensuring a safe flight every time.
Before entering the various gures, you need to
determine the basic empty weight of the airplane
and the arm (or station) for each weight entered.
These gures should be determined using the pilot’s
operating handbook for your airplane. The pilot’s
operating handbook also notes the weight limitations
and fore/aft CG limits. Compare those gures to the
values calculated by the GPSMAP 96/96C.
