# Electronic Flight Bag

{% hint style="warning" %}
EFB Must be operated with a mouse. This tablet is currently incompatible with GamePads. 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Selecting a predefined cargo load through the PAYLOAD menu automatically assigns the corresponding weights to all six cargo stations and updates the aircraft’s center of gravity. No further input is required.

Manually changing these values or entering a different load weight may conflict with the tablet selection. There is no tool available to calculate CG outside the options provided on the EFB.
{% endhint %}

The Electronic Flight Bag provides an easy-to-use interface to interact with the aircraft attachments, doors and payloads. The EFB is located in the left side wall of the pilot seat, near the window. The EFB can also be accessed from the Loadmaster Station, though displayed as a laptop instead of a tablet.
