The sequence between the different loading scenarios can be made in the _weight\_and\_balance\_analysis\_conf.xml_ file. The shift in CG due to the different loading scenarios is considered only for the longitudinal axis, as it is assumed that the aircraft is loaded symmetrically. Finally, the **most forward and most aft _x_-CG positions** and the corresponding masses are depicted from the resulting diagramm.

The LTH provides tabulated values and empirical methods specific to various aircraft configurations. These tables account for typical mass distributions and structural layouts. They are more accurate than Raymer’s approach but require knowledge of the specific aircraft class and design. The `calculate_inertia_by_lth_method` function is tailored specifically for conventional tube-and-wing configurations. This method uses aircraft mass properties like the OEM, the payload mass ($m_{payload}$) and the fuel mass ($m_{fuel}$) and geometric dimensions such as wing span $b$ and fuselage length $l$. All cross-product terms ($I_{xy}$, $I_{xz}$, etc.) are set to $0$, assuming symmetry.
