Original Note:
Weight and balance calculations are critical to safe aircraft operation. If a plane is overweight, or if it is out of balance, it can become uncontrollable. Large aircraft are allowed to use formulas that use average weights of passengers. Smaller plane cannot. https://www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/2022-11/AC120-27E.pdf https://aerocorner.com/blog/aircraft-weight-and-balance/
