CRJ-200 station loading

[Guest]

[/p]CRJ-200 interior station loading [/p] [/p]The following is a `clip' from the CFG file of the Gmax CRJ-200 model. It's usual for the `empty weight' parameter found in the `stock' CFG file to include a full passenger and baggage load (see table below). This is similar to the ZFW (Zero Fuel Weight). The reason is so that flight characteristics will resemble a normal aircraft WITHOUT the user having to add interior loads.

The longitudinal coordinates are an assumption until an actual seating diagram can be reviewed. Then, the lon_coordinates will be accurate as will the row spacing. This loading method also improves MOI characteristics as opposed to a single `concentrated load' at the CoG.
