Spread sheet and CG

[BruceHughes]

Hi group

Our EAA chapter (326) has very accurate scales for members.
I feel comfortable with my project's CG but I am still
going to do the weighing and calculation again.  I bought
a new battery which is lighter but can slide forward
another 3/4".  So I don't expect a lot of change.  It
is time to do a condition inspection so new calculations
will be better, IMHO.   

I am planning to do it with a known quantity of gasoline
in each tanks.  I have done the weighing with the tanks
empty before; does not seem reasonable to drain all the
gas as the tanks are so close to the CG and there is
some hazard in draining tanks. 

Someone gave me a copy of a spread sheet program but
it is in an old computer.  The old one had a small
problem anyway.

I think it is time I buy one.  How do I do that?   I don't
have spread sheet software.

Thank you for any comments.

Go to www.openoffice.com and download the applications. It will give you word and excel. You have to do the custom install so you can choose what you want or you will get everything. They don't call it excel its something like calculator.
