Abstract
Before I give the following short statement of SAS’ experiences with the Weight and Balance – system installed by Standard Electric and based on a Stantec Zebra Computer I want to say that to-day S.AS Copenhagen’ cannot live without that system. The whole work in connection with passenger check-in and weight and balance computation would change considerably and be much more expensive and -not to forget- our passengers would get a poor service if we had to return to a manual system. S M feel that the thoughts given to the system have proved to be correct and we intend to follow the success by extension of the system to remote stations linked u:p to the computer in Copenhagen by means of data-transmission circuits. However, this does not mean that we are content with everything in connection with our Weight and Balance system and I shall give you some examples of advantages and drawbacks listed to ‘me by the load controllers. In other words: now speaks the practical day-to-day user of the system.
