Claim 16:
17. The configuration visualization system of claim 14, wherein in determining the set of weight differences between the weights for the spatial zones in the aircraft and the corresponding spatial zones in the comparison aircraft, the computer system executes the program instructions to:
identify parts located in a selected spatial zone in the spatial zones;
determine first weights for the parts in the selected spatial zone;
sum the first weights to obtain a first summed weight for the selected spatial zone;
identify the parts in a selected corresponding spatial zone that corresponds to the selected spatial zone;
determine the weights for the parts in the selected corresponding spatial zone;
sum second weights for the parts in the selected corresponding spatial zone to obtain a second summed weight for the selected corresponding spatial zone; and
determine a difference between the first summed weight and the second summed weight, wherein the difference is for the selected spatial zone and the selected corresponding spatial zone.
