PanAir Flight Training

Every pilot knows that a well-balanced aircraft is a safe aircraft. The Centre of Gravity (CofG)  isn’t just a number on a chart; it’s the invisible point where your aircraft balances in flight. Get it wrong, and your aircraft may be hard to control or even unsafe to fly. So how do we find that perfect balance point? It all comes down to one simple equation: Moment= Force × Arm In aviation terms, that means multiplying the weight  of each item by its distance (arm)  from a fixed reference...

When we talk about air pressure in aviation, we’re really talking about the weight of the atmosphere above us. Even though we can’t see it, air has mass — and that mass pushes down on everything below it.

Learning to fly at night or in cloud is a challenging yet rewarding process
