Jabiru J160-C weight & balance

Data source

POH JP-FM-06 Section 2.7/2.8; Section 6.3, Figures 6-3a/6-3b/6-3c, Table 6.4 (pages 27-83 of j160-c__poh__sections-0-9-rev-3.pdf) · version type

• Envelope built from Table 6.4: forward limit 180 mm aft of datum up to and including 440 kg, linear to 233 mm at 540 kg; aft limit 292 mm at all weights. The 250 kg lower edge is only the bottom of the trim-sheet chart scale, not a printed minimum weight.
• Baggage: 18 kg behind each seat, 36 kg total, in a single baggage zone at 920 mm. Do not load above the tops of the seat backs.
• Fuel tank capacities, usable fuel and fuel density are not printed on these pages. The trim sheet works in litres (1 line per 10 L), but no kg/L figure is given.
• The weighing form lists unusable fuel as 4 kg in the header tank at arm 304 mm. This conflicts with the header tank fuel station at 840 mm in Table 6.4, so verify. Empty weight includes unusable fuel and full oil.
• The example empty weight of 275 kg at 180 mm (trim index 49.5) is only an example. Use the aircraft's actual weighing record.
• Both the zero-fuel and takeoff conditions must fall inside the envelope.
• No maximum per-seat or minimum pilot weight is printed on these pages.
• Read from the POH by ZuluCheck and checked by a second reading; verify against your own manual.

For reference only. The aircraft’s approved flight manual and weighing report are the final authority.
