weighing equipment for industry; and, in particular, the aircraft industry. 
The primary systems used by airlines are the load cell kits which fit on top 
of aircraft jacks. The newer systems are platform scales, onto which the aircraft 
is towed. The platform scales are used specifically for not only total weight and 
center of gravity, but also calibration of the on-board weighing equipments found 
primarily in the new wide-bodied aircraft. 

Additional electronic scale systems are now being installed for the cargo weighing, 
as well as individual baggage and sorting systems within the terminal. This is to 
assist direct computer input and data enhancement. 

The application of the new electronic scales is very important; primarily because 
they are portable, they have accuracies of .l%, and they can be easily used in 
different locations by inexperienced operators. A bad weight is typically worse 
than none at all; therefore, the application and use of the electronic scales is of 
great importance. At stake is the optimum use and safety of aircraft. </style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9.
