Course: Aircraft Pilot Training I (20053-I) > Section: Examining the Forces that Act on Aircraft

Explanation should include the significance of an aircraft’s center of gravity (CG) when in flight:

- Compliance with the weight and balance limits of any airplane is critical to flight safety.
- Operating an airplane above the maximum weight limitation compromises the structural integrity of the airplane and adversely affects its flight performance.
