thruster t500 weight and balance

[terryc]

Got a call from raa yesterday with some additional requirements for my thruster rego.

 

Rego runs out mid- late 2013 The extras are photos of

 

1/ MTOW signage.

 

2/ This a/c does not comply etc.

 

3/ weight and balance and all that entails.

 

Does anyone have w/b details of a thruster t500. The stuff in the original POH is fairly average.

 

The T300 and T500 are the same with the exception of empty weight and mtow.

 

No point in reinventing the wheel.

 

Thanks in advance, Terry.

They want to know the weight and balance of your a/c, not some one elses a/c-where is Facthunter.

G'day terryc,

 

A couple of years ago, after the restoration process on my T500, the L2 did a weight and balance exercise for my aircraft and recorded it on a form for sending in to RAAus with all the other requirements (I hope ALL requirements went to RAAus), when registering the T500. As cficare has already said, you need an L2 to do one for your specific aircraft.

I thought it was a requirement that a pilot understood weight and balance. What is the problem. You should be able to use bathroom scales for a Thruster. It should have been done originally and whenever the plane is sold.
