This chapter gives information on the tools for leveling, weighing and how to calculate the
center of gravity.
Do the leveling and weighing procedure only on a flat surface. Do the leveling and weighing
procedure in a hangar to prevent incorrect measurements because of wind.
Do not lift the tail higher than necessary. When the tail is lifted too much, the aircraft can tilt
forward. This can cause injury to persons.
08-10-00 LEVELING
To level the aircraft:
1
Use wheel chocks to safety the main wheels.
2
Lift the tail.
3
Put a jack below the tailwheel. The tailwheel must be locked straight.
4
Use a water level to measure the attitude of the aircraft. Put the water level on the
straight part of the canopy cutout (left side of the cockpit).
5
Adjust the pitch of the aircraft as follows: Change the height of the jack until the
water level shows that the aircraft is in a horizontal position.
