Default Tie Down Trouble

There is no way to load our 74 Archer into the utility category with any
fuel on board. Even with a 95 lb pilot only, and no fuel, the cg is right
at the aft edge of the utility envelope. OTOH, it's almost impossible to
get the cg too far aft in the normal category and still be below gross.

Study your POH for the forward limit. At lighter gross weights, it moves
substantially forward. For a real shocker, look at the limits in Utility
and Acrobatic category.
