Aircraft W&B vs iFly Weight and Balance Usage & Stats
The only aircraft weight and balance calculator you need!!!
SLIDERS
Through the use of sliders, you can quickly change passenger, bag, and fuel loads and immediately see the effect on CG. With the use of standard weight you can double tab any object and set its weight to its standard value. 100% customizable and super quick.
GRAPHING
In app graphing will plot your aircraft’s CG envelope and current CG position on a custom graph. You can also select the track changes option that will record plot the changing CG as a line on the graph.
REPORT
After computing you CG you have the option to view a ‘Report’ which will create a PDF weight and balance report listing all the aircraft weights, arms and moments with totals for BOW, Zero Fuel, Ramp Weight and Takeoff Weight. This report can be viewed from the device, printed to a compatible printer, or sent as an email attachment. Perfect for showing how the CG was computed.
EXPORT
Share you aircraft with other Aircraft W&B app users through email with Export. This is a great way to backup you profile remotely, send to another device or send to a friend flying the same aircraft.
CUSTOMIZE
Setup your own aircraft from either one of the pre-configured templates or create your own custom calculator. Setting up your aircraft from a template cannot be easier. Just select the aircraft type from the list, enter your aircrafts tail-number, empty weight & moment and you are off and running.
Custom aircraft can also be entered one of two ways. Either select and edit a pre-stored aircraft template or configuring a new one from scratch by selecting ‘Custom’ from the aircraft template list. Either way, you can set forward and aft cg limits, fuel capacity & arm, seat and baggage locations, and BOW items stored in aircraft. Multiple aircraft tail -numbers and types can be added.

iFly Weight and Balance
iFly Weight and Balance is a paid service that is ideal for corporate and commercial operators and is extremely simple to use. American Aeronautics can create a weight and balance system for any aircraft. Each aircraft starting weight and cg is preset. This way you are guaranteed to have the correct starting point every time you do a weight and balance. All you have to do is add your passengers, baggage, takeoff fuel, and landing fuel. If you are out of limits, just adjust the various weights until you are within limits. It’s that easy! You will never worry about being out of limits again.
iFly Weight and Balance comes pre-loaded with one sample aircraft to demonstrate the app’s capabilities. A second sample aircraft can also be downloaded which demonstrates aircraft with complex fuel burn sequences. In order to use iFly Weight and Balance for your aircraft you must be a subscribed user. Contact American Aeronautics for details.
Please bear in mind that iFly Weight and Balance is not a generic weight and balance app that requires the user to enter aircraft specific data. Each individual aircraft is custom created by American Aeronautics to your exact aircraft type and serial number specifications and is licensed to you. We can create a system for ALL aircraft. Each aircraft is payable with a one time setup/design fee and a recurrent maintenance subscription. All pricing can be viewed at our website.
Once your aircraft is downloaded there is nothing for you to do but start adding passengers, baggage and fuel. The software is YOUR actual aircraft. There are no cg limits to program and no fuel moment data to enter. Once you have completed your weight and balance computation you can simply email a copy for your records.
All violations are shown visually. Are you too far forward? The forward cg limit will turn red. Are you over maximum landing weight? The maximum landing weight limit will turn red. Simply adjust your load until all limits are black.
Many aircraft have complex fuel burn sequences. iFly Weight and Balance depicts the exact fuel burn sequence of your aircraft.
ATTENTION TO ALL FAR 135 OPERATORS utilizing (or wanting to utilize) operations specifications A097. iFly Weight and Balance supports (dynamic) curtailing of the CG envelope as prescribed in AC120-27F. This is a requirement of A097. A098, and A099 when using standard average passenger and bag weights. Contact American Aeronautics for details.
