| This is the load adjuster slide rule for "American Beauty", 42-98008:2S:G. The load adjuster allowed the flight crew to compute the center of gravity given the weapons, fuel, and crew
loading. This then allowed the pilot to properly adjust the trim on the flight controls to maximize fuel efficience, and minimizing control inputs from the pilots. (courtesy of Steve
