Bonanza's come immediately to mind.

I do not know if the current models are built this way, the older
models had the fuel stored in the front of the wing, ahead of the
main spar. Any weight in the aircraft behind the front seats is
behind the fuel weight.



In my 64 S35 all weight in the plane is behind the fuel. The fuel is
at 75 and the front seats are at 85. Rear seats 121 and baggage at 150.


Any idea where front seats are in the 36 series?

Same place. Although the fuel is the same arm as the front seats in the 36.
