Can anyone give me some ideas for temporary, but securable weight
ballasts? The situation is we're preparing for FAA required test flights on our FIRST production aircraft. Weight will most likely need to be positioned in the right seat area, and/or in the limited baggage area behind the two seats. Wing bladders are not an option, nor is anything requiring a permanent mount. A non-U.S. built model of this aircraft has already been certified for U.S. flight. This is the first built here; but is not a prototype or "test model". This aircraft will be sold to a private buyer once it passes flight tests. This is the reason for the ballasts needing to be "non-invasive". I was thinking of something that could be bolted to the right seat mounts and/or strap secured in the baggage compartment. Any suggestions or sources? Thanks, DocS |
