Weight and Balance for the Airmass Incorporated Sunburst Model C Ultralight

The results of the weight and balance determination done for an ultralight aircraft are presented. The weight and balance determination encompassed finding weight and center of gravity of each component, determining the center of gravity of the ultralight in an X, Y, Z reference plane, and calculating the mass moments and products of inertia. The relations were calculated for various pilot weights and fuel loadings. The fuel varied from empty to five gallons (31.05 lbs), and the pilots ranged from 90 to 260 pounds. The weighings of components total 277.48 lbs (no pilot and no fuel).
