Optimum CG Range
Herb wrote:
...find the cg that gives you good handling and enough up elevator to stall the plane in a steep turn. It'll be at 75%-90% aft. Herb, J7 Reminds me of the old rule of thumb, if you could call it that: CG too far forward, can't pull the nose up for takeoff. CG too far aft, can't recover from a stall/spin. This method can be expensive in airplanes though... :-) Brian W
