Hi all,
Im struggling to create the WandB polygon for my new group aircraft.
Its an AA5a and the graph in the POH is of Moment/1000 vs Loaded weight in Lbs.
The POH shows almost a parallelogram with points at:
120,1500, 139,1500, 204,2200, 189,2200, and 145,1780
Ive looked through all the other aircraft documents and cant find any other WandB chart
Can anyone help me please?

If the graph in your POH is a parallelogram, then it is almost certainly a moment diagram rather than a CG diagram.
You should be able to convert it into a CG diagram (which is what SD needs) by multiplying each moment figure by the weight.
Have a look at this thread:-
