Which of these does NOT move an aircraft's centre of gravity?

  • A.Loading cargo into the forward hold
  • B.Adding load at the current centre of gravity
  • C.Burning fuel from an aft tank
  • D.Boarding passengers from the front

Answer: B

Correct answer: Adding load at the current centre of gravity

A load placed exactly at the centre of gravity has zero arm, so it adds no moment; the total weight rises but the centre of gravity stays put. Every other option places weight at a distance from it - forward hold, aft tank, front cabin - and so shifts it, forward or aft according to where the weight is added or removed.
