full fuel in tanks provided a definite means of
determining the exact weight of the fuel is
available.

desirable to install permanent ballast by pouring melted lead into the tail-post or longerons
due to difficulties that may be encountered in
subsequent welding repair operations.
It
should be noted that the installation of permanent ballast results in an increase of aircraft
empty weight. See figure 10-19 for ballast
computation. The local strength of the compartment in which the ballast is carried and the
effect of the ballast on aircraft weight and balance should be investigated when disposable
ballast is carried.
