Hey Tango Whiskey, sounds like you got your sierra together..............would you please address the "ideal" CG position in terms of percentage of allowable range?
Thanks,

JJ, Steve Smith has a good sermon on this, ask him next time you see him. He understands and explains it a lot better than I could.

I think it is cool that the tailplane lifts up at the low speed range, and down at the high speed range. Odd, but cool. So when you have the stick pulled back the tailplane is actually lifting up, and when the stick is pressed forward the tailplane is pushing down. As TW observes, it's all about the lift gradients. And pitching moment.
