The One asked:
Doing a weight and balance for my Cessna 172. Don't have a scale and was wondering how much an average Cowl cover weigh for this plane. Tried to look it up, but only came up with "light weight design". What should I put, 5 lbs? 10 lbs?

For a weight and balance, the weight of the cowl cover is included in the basic empty weight of theh aircraft.
To be specific, it is actually listed in the Comprehensive Equipment List, with a weight, an R next to it ..
