Graphical Section The Graphical Section is really central in performing a Weight and Balance determination. This section has three primary functions: • Display the Weight and Balance Envelope • Display the Weight and Balance Bar Display • Display the Weight and Balance Popup Menu Weight and Balance Popup Menu The Weight and Balance popup menu provides several configuration options and actions. Envelope Selection Following the Summary Selection is a list of possible envelopes for the selected aircraft. In our example above, the Beechcraft Duchess only has the Normal Envelope. If, for example, we had selected a Cessna 172N, the popup menu would have included both the Normal Envelope and the Utility Envelope. Again, note that since the Normal Envelope is selected, it has a check mark next to it. This is also shown in the Configuration Section (shown in yellow). When the envelope is changed, the graphical envelope will change to reflect the new envelope and all calculations and warnings will be in accordance with the newly selected envelope. Display Mode WingX has two ways of displaying Weight and Balance information, both of which are described in much more detail later in this chapter: • Bar Display • Show Moment • Show Graphics When ‘Bar Display’ is checked, the graphical display will show the Bar Display, and when it is unchecked, the conventional Weight and Balance Envelope is displayed. 40
Summary Table WingX’s Weight and Balance Summary Table consolidates the passenger, fuel, and baggage information into a conventional looking table with weights, arms, and moments. The Summary Table will list each station of the passengers, baggage, and fuel. Passenger stations are shown in green, baggage stations are shown in light red, and fuel stations are shown in blue. Note that this is consistent with the color scheme used on the W&B envelope display. The fuel calculations will be broken down into the zero fuel, ramp, takeoff, and landing phases. In addition, for each CG that is calculated, WingX will display the allowable range of CGs for that weight. The Summary Table displays the Weight and Balance calculations in a table which is in the same format as in most POHs; i.e. a weight x arm = moment table. This table shows the actual data that is at the core of the weight and balance calculations. This is an excellent tool since it allows pilots to verify that WingX is using the correct arms for each station. The Summary Table is equally an excellent tool for CFIs as it allows one to quickly verify and compare a student’s weight and balance calculations prior to a flight. Flight Safety Please verify that the arm for each and every station is correct and that the actual calculations, calculated CGs, maximum weights, envelope adherence determinations are correct before using WingX extensively. There is one option for the Summary Table: • Show Summary CG Range – Selecting this option will cause WingX to display the allowable CG at each phase of the flight. Note that these CG ranges are not taken from the POH, but rather are calculated for the actual weight at that phase of flight using the selected envelope. Full Screen Selecting this option removes all controls from the screen other than the actual graphics portion and causes that graphics portion to occupy the entire screen within WingX. This allow the actual graphical data points and line to be viewed more accurately. Tapping on the graph will revert WingX back to non-Full Screen mode. 41
