⚠ Empty weight / CG — model placeholder, tap to set yours

8KCAB: enter your empty weight WITH full oil. The certified empty weight leaves out the drainable oil (about 14 lb at -34 in), and adding it moves the CG forward. The POM loading problem starts from “Licensed Empty Weight & Moment With Oil”.

These are generic model reference figures and will differ from your specific airframe (equipment, avionics, paint). Enter the empty weight and CG from your aircraft's actual weighing record (lb/in, per the POH) before relying on any result — saved on this device.

Density altitude stretches your takeoff roll and cuts climb rate. Check the takeoff/climb tables in your POH for the current DA and weight — this tool doesn't replace them.
