- Contexto
- The center of gravity (CG) at the time of takeoff was 25.3 percent of mean aerodynamic chord (MAC).
- Information from other areas of the airline’s operation, such as weight and balance or flight dispatch departments, will most likely provide figures expressed in terms of percentage of reference chord (% RC) or percentage of mean aerodynamic chord (% MAC), which may also be available from the aircraft’s onboard computers.
