Reduced moment scaled by one hundred · case 01

The reduced moment read off the loading graph is ten times too large.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 10 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The reduction divides by 100 instead of the documented 1000.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Report the moment divided by 1000.

Unsuccessful approach: Reporting the unreduced moment breaks every chart lookup that expects moment/1000.

Case contract

Input [[quantity, 'kg'|'lb', arm, 'in'|'cm'|'mm']]. Convert to lb (1 kg = 2.20462 lb) and inches (2.54 cm, 25.4 mm per inch); other units -> 'ERR_UNIT'; total weight <= 0 -> 'ERR_WEIGHT'. Return [weight lb r1, reduced moment (lb-in/1000) r2, CG in r2 computed from the unreduced moment].

Why this case matters

Imported aircraft documentation mixes metric and imperial units; reduced moments (moment/1000) are a charting convenience and must not feed the CG division.

Verification & scope

A deterministic toy loading model with stipulated constants; it is not an approved aircraft flight manual procedure and makes no claim of regulatory conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
