Gliders in Clubs are always running into this problem. C of G ranges seem to be a bit more proscribed than with power and with different club members, particulaly the lightweight women, constantly using the gliders it can be a problem. The problem is worse with the training gliders are members usually only get one or two flights before the next member on the list wants to fly. My old club solved it by each of the lightweights having their own leadlined cushion to sit on to bring the C of G into line. I have a lump of lead in the Kolb and I had some rolled round a forward crossmember and fixed with jubilee clips in the Challenger. No problem Pat ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 02:49:50 PM PST US Subject: Ultralight-List: Re: Challenger long wing weight and ballance From: "kmccune" Thanks for all the replies guys, my reason for posting was that I was concerned that something was not right, but apparently everything if normal.
