You are correct, no one on UA-cam had this explained this like you did. Thank you, great help to my homework assignment. My only question is at 9:29 the original question is "Find EWCG aft of datum" and your final answer reflects "Find location aft of LEMAC." Are these two different reference points or the same?
Hello! I am glad this helped you with your homework. The location of the leading edge of the mean aerodynamic chord (LEMAC) is always expressed in inches aft of the datum. So, if we find the location of the CG in reference to LEMAC, we are also finding it in location in inches aft of the aircraft's datum. They are essentially interchangeable. I hope this helps!
@@LauraLaster747 I see now why your information was so helpful (LETU). They have the best program with the most knowledgeable staff. Truly amazing people, thanks again.
For clarification, is the top of that wing the leading edge of the aircraft wing or is the bottom half of the rectangular "wing" the leading edge of the wing? I believe you said the bottom of the illustration is the leading edge, but I'm not certain.
Sorry for confusion. On the example I put on the video, the bottom line on the rectangle "wing" is the leading edge (located at 456.7" in the first example.)
If the CG position is 21% MAC, the MAC is 73 inches, and the CG datum is 26 inches aft of the leading edge of the MAC, what is the CG position relative to the datum. what is the formula that should we use to solve this
Hey Jorge, I'm glad this helped you understand the concepts! Keep working hard to understand and ask lots of questions of your teachers so they can help you further. I hope that you can get assistance from them to understand other topics you may not fully understand.

what is the formula that should we use to solve this
If you watch the video, you can find the formula and way to solve the problem. I can't provide homework help to you.
Is there a ground school you have(private, IFR and commercial pilot ground)?
No, I teach for a private university and use the curriculum provided by my university for my instrument ground school.
it's funny that I can understand you so well but I can't learn anything from my teachers sadly because of this I feel behind
