That’s what automation gets you. Grounded for Weight & Balance software?!
Takes about 2 minutes and a simple calculator!

That's a really big deal especially this time of year. Going to cost them Billions in revenue.

The more we are dependent on technology; the more we are crippled and enslaved by it.

Takes about 2 minutes and a simple calculator! I taught Aircraft Weight & Balance in the Air Force at FTD School. You are right. A calculator or a weight & balance slide rule is all they need.

M = W x A / 1000 CG = M / GW - .763 / .002723 for the 7oh. Tons of useless numbers that’ll always be burned into my brain

Gave me nightmares waking up to this story We got caught in the Southwest debacle 2 years ago and couldn't get back home. Took us a rental to another airport and 4 days past the original date to get home. That one was hard to deal with.
And here we sit, in Tampa, FL just like the above with a flight out tomorrow. Crossing fingers another "technical issue" doesn't arise.

It was just a small software change. No need to test it.
