Hi again,
Looking for some input on this question if possible.
In the course, it says step 1 is to add hard ballast before looking to fuel, especially when asked for "Min Fuel".
This question has thrown me, as it's the first time I am hearing of - no hard ballast in the nose.
Why is 5KG water ballast not allowed in the nose and how should I have found this out??
Appreciate any help.
Cheers

Got help from another forum.

Understand that 2630KG is the limit to work to, so NO ballast in the nose.

Doing this subject by correspondence is so much fun. Not.
Sorry to be bugging the forum with seems obvious, but sadly it isn't to me.
Thanks.

It may be obvious to say but there are a lot of threads in the Performance section that relate to weight and balance with some fantasic explanations. Maybe have a read through might give you a more solid understanding.


Cheers

Hi Stuart,
Thanks for that. Obviously I had not done that, or thought of it.
I'll be sure to do that before posting again.
Cheers,
PJ
