Importance of CG in Aircraft Stability An aircraft's Center of Gravity (CG) is crucial for stability. A forward CG causes the nose to pitch down, requiring more elevator input and increased lift to maintain level flight. This leads to higher stall speeds, longer takeoffs, and increased control effort. Pilots must keep the CG within limits for safe and efficient flight. The forward center of gravity causes the aircraft to develop a pitching down. The tendency balance is regained with the help of

⚖️ How do you weigh a giant of the skies? It may not look like it, but aircraft go on the scale too. And this isn’t a routine checkbox — it’s one of the most critical (and fascinating) maintenance tasks in aviation. In this video, we see the Base Maintenance team at IndiGo preparing an A320 for its periodic weighing. No estimates. No shortcuts. Just precision. 👉 Why does this matter so much? ✈️ Center of Gravity (CG) Not textbook theory — real-world stability, controllability, and safety margin
