|

Hi all,
I need the opinion from the more experienced flightsimmers and real-world pilots flying the CRJ-200.
What is the ideal load distribution when loading the CRJ-200? From other forums I gathered that the wing fuel tanks should always be topped off first and the rest of the fuel in the centre tank. What about loading passengers and cargo? A full load is usually 50 pax (split 20/30) and 1500lbs cargo. What if I only load say 30 pax and 500lbs cargo? Taking the centre of gravity in consideration, is there a fixed calculation or method to divide the load between the front and rear cabins/cargo holds? I'm using FSPassengers (which by the way is a great program) and the loading sheet is very realistic. It seems that the CRJ-200 is quite sensitive to the centre of gravity.
Regards
Derrick |
