The move compromised the aircraft's balance to the point that control of the aircraft was lost. [6] In July 2013, a de Havilland Canada DHC-3 Otter departed Soldotna, Alaska, stalled after rotation and crashed 2,300 ft (700 m) away from its brake-release point as it was overloaded by 418 lb (190 kg) and its CG was well aft of the rear limit ...

In case of land vehicles like cars, tanks etc., which use the ENU-system (East-North-Up) as external reference (World frame), the vehicle's (body's) positive y- or pitch axis always points to its left, and the positive z- or yaw axis always points up. World frame's origin is fixed at the center of gravity of the vehicle.
ARP4761, Guidelines for Conducting the Safety Assessment Process on Civil Aircraft, Systems, and Equipment is an Aerospace Recommended Practice from SAE International. [1]
For a tailless aircraft, the neutral point coincides with the aerodynamic center, and so for such aircraft to have longitudinal static stability, the center of gravity must lie ahead of the aerodynamic center. [13] For missiles with symmetric airfoils, the neutral point and the center of pressure are coincident and the term neutral point is not ...
The weight of the aircraft when unloaded—no crew, passengers, cargo, or fuel. {{{loaded weight main}}}, {{{loaded weight alt}}} The weight of the aircraft when loaded for a 'typical' mission. This statistic is cited for almost any aircraft, but it is relatively arbitrary, so only use statistics given in sources.

Static wicks on the winglet and aileron of an EasyJet Airbus A319-100. Static wicks, also called static dischargers or static discharge wicks, are devices used to remove static electricity from aircraft in flight. They take the form of small sticks pointing backwards from the wings, and are fitted on almost all civilian aircraft. [1]
