Lorsque l'on pèse un avion, le point, sur la balance, où est concentré le poids, s'appelle point de pesée. Lors de la pesée d'avions de poids léger à moyen, les roues sont généralement placées sur les balances. Ce qui signifie que le point de pesée s'obtient en traçant une ligne verticale par l'axe de l'essieu, jusqu'à son point de rencontre avec la balance. 1, record 1, French, - balance
