This is located at fuselage Station 200 on the center line of the aircraft and is marked by a datum plate on the underside of the aircraft. Standard Mean Chord (SMC). Length : 72.72 inches Leading Edge : Station 218.21 Leveling Means. For determination of the center of gravity the aircraft should be brought to datum horizontal attitude. This is checked horizontally using a clinometer with a straight edge placed on pegs inserted in the holes in the two leveling plates on the fuselage left side at Sta. 212 and Sta. 291.12. The lateral level is checked using the two floor seat rails at the front spar frame in the passenger compartment. Maximum Weights.
