12- Which items are included in the empty weight of an aircraft?

A- Unusable fuel and undrainable oil. B- Only the airframe, powerplant, and optional equipment. C- Full fuel tanks and engine oil to capacity.

13- If an aircraft is loaded 90 pounds over maximum certificated gross weight and fuel (gasoline) is drained to bring the aircraft weight within limits, how much fuel should be drained?

A- 10 gallons. B- 12 gallons. C- 15 gallons. 14- (Refer to Figures 33 and 34.) Determine if the airplane weight and balance is within limits.

Front seat occupants 340 lb Rear seat occupants 295 lb Fuel (main wing tanks) 44 gal Baggage 56 lb

A- 20 pounds overweight, CG aft of aft limits. B- 20 pounds overweight, CG within limits. C- 20 pounds overweight, CG forward of forward limits.

15- (Refer to Figures 33 and 34.) 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?

A- The CG moves forward approximately 3 inches. B- The weight changes, but the CG is not affected. C- The CG moves forward approximately 0.1 inch.
