ForeFlight Weight and Balance
I just purchased a 2003 DA40. I am trying to load the weight and balance information into ForeFlight. I’m a little (lot) rusty at this, but any suggestions on figuring and loading forward and aft CG limits would be appreciated.

Re: ForeFlight Weight and Balance
Foreflight already has a couple of DA40 W&B entries, with proper envelopes for variants. Just need to enter your own CG and empty weight. That's all I had to do.
You set the default aircraft type and pick the appropriate W&B. For we with the early ones, that's basically whether you have the increased MTOW or not. Where are you struggling?
