  4. 77.5 normal
68. Refer to Figures 33 and 34 on pages 35 and 36.
What effect does a 35-gallon fuel burn (main tanks) have on the weight and balance if the airplane weighed 2,890 pounds and the MOM/100 was 2,452 at takeoff?
  1. 210 pounds less and the aircraft is still in limits
  2. 210 pounds more in weight and the aircraft is out of limits
  3. 210 pounds less and the aircraft is aft of the limits
  4. 210 pounds less and the aircraft is forward of limits

Upon landing, the front passenger (180 pounds) departs the airplane. A rear passenger (204 pounds) moves to the front passenger position. What effect does this have on the CG if the airplane weighed 2,690 pounds and the MOM/100 was 2,260 just prior to the passenger transfer?
  1. The CG will move forward about 3 inches
  2. The CG will move aft outside of limits
  3. The weight remains the same and the CG is unchanged
  4. The weight increases by 180 pounds
