John,
My experience and judgement tell me your figures are way too far aft.
I suspect the distance aft of the leading edge to the zero MAC is in
error. One sure way to check this is to mark the MAC on both wings
then assemble the wing without the fuselage on saw-horses. Then snap a
string from both zero MAC's and measure the distance from the string
to the leading edge at root rib.
Cheers,
JJ
