We will soon be flying our DG1000S. Since many pilots will be flying we will need to have a standardized process for determining the correct tail ballast or front ballast. Does anyone have a work sheet for the DG1000 W&B?
Thanks
Phil

Phil there are a couple suggestions I could make. I don't have a worksheet for a 1000, but it is relatively simple to make one.
Option A if you have a computer at your club that everyone can access, get SeeG from Matt Heron over at http://www.glideplan.com/. It's pretty slick and easy to use and doesn't require much work to set it up.
Option B: The old tried and true spreadsheet. If you use a Google Doc spreadsheet, you can open it up on the web to anyone for editing.
Option C: Tweak the form and javascript off of our W&B for a 2-33. A bit more technical skill required to alter this, but if you have a hosting location it will give you a shared access point for a quick weight and balance calc.

Option D: Paper calcs. Last I heard, paper and pencil still worked for figuring out CG although I think the last time I did that was on my check ride.
Lot's of options once you have the moments to work from.
