Data source

Flight Manual Section 2 §2.1.15–2.1.16 (p.29); Section 3 §3.2–3.3.1 (pp.33, 35, 36) (pages 9-36 of p2008-us-lsa-912uls__afm__us-lsa.pdf) · version type

• Units chosen are the loading-chart units (lb, in, USG); the manual also prints metric: PAX arm 1.900 m, fuel 2.209 m, baggage 2.417 m, CG range 1.842–2.020 m, MTOW/MLW 600 kg, baggage max 20 kg.
• CG limits are 20% MAC (72.50 in / 1.842 m) forward and 33% MAC (79.5 in / 2.020 m) aft for all weights; no minimum flight weight is printed, so the envelope's lower edge at 0 lb is a placeholder, not a manual value.
• Fuel density 6.26 lb/USG is derived from the fuel loading table (1 gal = 6.26 lb); the table runs to 26 gal, but tank total and usable capacity are not stated on these pages – check Section 2/7.
• Pilot and passenger share one arm (74.80 in); no per-seat maximum or minimum pilot weight is printed on these pages.
• Baggage max 44 lb (20 kg); floor loading max 12.5 kg/dm²; max baggage size 80x45x32 cm; secure with tie-down net.
• The note '*ADD to the distance D the value 1567mm (62in)' applies to the weighing-report distance D; station arms in the tables are already measured from the datum.
• Example empty weight 813.5 lb @ 77.13 in is a sample; use the aircraft's own weighing report (empty weight includes unusable fuel).
• 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.
