Post by JimJab »

Hi Rainer,

Can you tell me if there is an Design Item I can use to display my aircraft's gross weight?

Cheers

If you set up the Weight and Balance calculator it will Display your current Weight along with your Weight with Full and Empty Fuel.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for your reply, I have set up the my W&B, so what I would like to do now, is add my current gross weight from my W&B page to my P-Chart screen as in the pic.

I am not sure if there is a design component that will allow me to insert my current aircraft weight from my W&B into a my P-Chart screen design, if so I have not found it.

Hence the question to Rainer, but if you know if this can be done or know how to do it, I would be very much appreciative of any help.

Cheers

No such a screen designer item does not exist - the calculations are only done when you actually look at the W&B display.
