How do I calculate Weight and Balance for Chimes Aviation aircraft?

Select your aircraft registration (e.g., VT-CHB), enter pilot weights and fuel in liters. The tool automatically plots the CG on the Cessna 172 or PA28 envelope.

Does this tool support Dhana (VA1J) and Neemuch (VA1N)?

Yes, it pulls live METAR data for VA1J and VA1N to calculate Density Altitude and runway crosswind components automatically.

Advanced Weight and Balance EFB for Chimes Aviation Academy

This professional-grade Load and Trim Calculator is precision-engineered for the Cessna 172R, Cessna 172S (G1000), and Piper PA28 Archer fleet. Specifically optimized for Chimes Aviation Academy (CAA) operations at Dhana (VA1J) and Neemuch (VA1N), this tool ensures that every sortie meets strict POH (Pilot’s Operating Handbook) safety standards.

Automated Calculations

Zero Fuel & Ramp Mass: Instant totals for mission planning.
Dynamic CG Plotting: Real-time visualization on the Normal/Utility envelope.
Environmental Data: Automated Density Altitude and Pressure Alt via live METAR.

Performance & Safety

Wind Components: Instant Headwind and Crosswind (with 15KT safety alerts).
Runway Logic: Intelligent runway selection based on current magnetic variation.
DGCA Compliance: Designed to assist CPL students in accurate pre-flight dispatch.

Developer Note: This Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) tool was developed by Cadet Sheikh Shoeb to enhance situational awareness and flight safety for fellow student pilots. While data is derived from official POH values, always cross-check with the physical aircraft flight manual before takeoff.
