Maximum baggage weight?

Maximum baggage weight?

• A. 100 lbs
• B. 120 lbs
• C. 150 lbs
• D. 90 lbs

Answer: (A)

Weight and balance limits govern how much baggage you may carry. The baggage compartment has a fixed maximum load to keep the center of gravity within the approved range and to protect the airframe from overloading. For this aircraft, the maximum allowed baggage weight is 100 pounds. Staying at or below this limit keeps the CG within its envelope and preserves handling characteristics and performance. Exceeding it would shift the CG beyond approved limits and could degrade stability, increase takeoff distance, and risk exceeding structural or weight limits. Carrying less than the maximum is fine, but the question asks for the maximum, so 100 pounds is the ceiling.
