Question About ZFW/CG on Airbus INIT page

Gavin0401 · August 12, 2024 at 1:55 AM

Hi. I was wondering how to calculate the ZFW/CG weights for particularly the A320/321 family. I noticed the default scratchpad sets 28.0 every time but I know that isn't correct due to me having a different ZFW each flight. Any way to calculate this as I know simbrief doesn't calculate this, only the ZFW data.

Thank you!

When the scratchpad of the MCDU is empty you can click the line select key next to the empty entry field it to get the suggested value. Then click it again to insert it right away. Different fuel masses or payloads are not simulated at this time.

I usually go with 30.0 on ZFWCG as it's the Airbus Default CG value
