    Ned, send me your W&B stuff, the original stuff, and let me create a database page for it. I'm going to modify my W&B sample loading to reflect the pilots/copilots CG at the extremes. I think it was a bad decision not to include both limits in the original loading paperwork. Who'd be at fault if a pilot used the sample loading and then crashed because both front seat passengers fly at the aft location and loaded the plane to what would have been a safe loading?

    I would presume that the FAA would require a safety factor built into these limits, just like the +10% (or was it +15%) on your Vne dive tests. Is this not the case? Do you loose stability EXACTLY at the aft limit? gil A At 07:01 PM 6/20/2009, you wrote: > >Ned, send me your W&B stuff, the original stuff, and let me create a >database page for it. > >I'm going to modify my W&B sample loading to reflect the >pilots/copilots CG at the extremes.

    Not sure. But, we can be assured, if it's FAA approved, it has to be OK.
