Group: Forum Members Posts: 274, Visits: 2.5K	Hi, Can anyone shed any light on interpretation of the weight and balance chart? Look at the attached one. Initially I thought I was overweight (the green arrow extends well above the top limit of the envelope). However, on closer inspection the takeoff weight is actually 2328lbs, which is well within the limit of 2440 lbs for this aircraft. Do the crosses indicate the actual points of interest in the envelope? If so, what is the purpose of the green and red arrows? Thanks Andy Attachments w-and-b.JPG (464 views, 23.00 KB)
