The Excel spread sheet that we used at the 2013 Gathering does the same 
thing as these apps.  A plot of CG numbers is included at the bottom of the 
spread sheet (standard Excel operations).  E-mail me off-line and I will 
send you a copy for free.

Weighing in on weight-and-balance apps

October 28, 2013

By Ben?t J. Wilson

Weight-and-balance apps seem to be very popular 
with pilots. The last time I did a column on them 
June
 
6, I received a flood of others they say I 
missed. So here are five more recommended by 
members. These are not endorsements of any app.

FlightScale ($3.99  in 
iTunes 
and $1.99 in 
Google
 
Play)?This tablet app allows users to add 
aircraft data, including the envelope limits, and 
see the weight and center of gravity plot on a 
live graph. The app includes three different 
templates that allow users to enter data for analysis.

EZ Load ($3.99 in 
iTunes)?This 
iPhone/iPad app was designed for users of smaller 
general aviation aircraft to do accurate checks 
of weight and balance. Users enter the necessary 
information for each aircraft type and the app 
provides four primary and one auxiliary view: 
list, main, graph, description, and info.

Avilution Weight and Balance ($4.95  in 
Google 
Play)?This smartphone app can compute aircraft 
weight, balance, mean aerodynamic chord, and 
center of gravity. The weight/balance range information is shown on a chart.

Aircraft Weight and Balance ($9.99 in 
Google
 
Play)?This smartphone app is preloaded with the 
Cessna 152, Cessna 172, and Piper Cherokee, but 
you can add and remove aircraft as needed. 
Features include ability to enter fuel by weight 
instead of volume, compute weight shift/ballast 
suggestions when needed, and share reports via email or save to an SD card.

NextGen Systems Weight & Balance (free in 
iTunes)?This 
iPhone app allows users to customize the 
parameters of almost everything and include all 
of their airplanes under a single program. 
Features include building an airplane (this will 
cover more than 80 percent of the general 
aviation fleet), creating a load sheet with 
graph, and offering in-app tech support and 
tutorials. While the app is free, users must pay 
between $3.99 and $4.99 for each aircraft type.
