Subject: | Re: Classic IV Weight and balance Sheet |
I just had a look at your W&B and found a small mistake you have the arm of
your mains located at -2.25 in.. You then added the arms instead of
subtracting them.
That makes your balance 5028 + (-2(675)inlb)/ 632lb = 5.9in
Or
5028 - 1350 = 3678inlb/632lb = 5.8in
The cell D10 should read "B10*-C10" and Cell D11 should read "B11*-C11"
I've attached a correction to the sheet.

That was posted on this list a couple of years back.
It started out of a thread about fabric damage possibly from bears. It
started with a way to discourage bears and ended with the loss of the
aircraft and the cabin. It was one of those tales that although quite tragic
(if true, I think it was supposed to be true) just kept you in stitches the
whole way through.
If anyone can find and repost that story I would be quite grateful, I would
love to read it again.

In fact I did try that a few weeks ago, and what I got was bear damaged
airplanes. Very impressive, sad and not actually what I wished to see.
What I wanted specifically was to read the story that had been posted on
this list. Now I suppose I could wade through the over 16 million results,
trusting that if it were there it would be in the first couple hundred
thousand or so. Or I could post here hoping the original author is still
among us and hasn't been discouraged by suggestions to look elsewhere for
information. I have my own opinions about which is most likely to turn up
one obscure story that was only peripherally concerned with bears damaging
planes, but thanks for all your help!

I don't see that Noel. Av8r3400's weight and balance appears to be correct to
me.

Dave,
I don't know if you know about the Matronics search engine:
http://www.matronics.com/searching/search.html. I dug through it but
couldn't find anything like what you're looking for.

I do Guy, thanks. I could not find it either, nor with Google although it
may well be in that pile somewhere. I'm fairly certain this list was the
source, I'll wait and see if someone can point me to it. Thanks for looking.
