[QUOTE=rampage-1;12145389]9 inches is a little on the nose heavy side but fly's OK.
At 10 inches CG the glide ratio is much better at 10 1/2 it seems to be OK too. I like it at 10 inches.
The Pawnee has a very forgiving CG envelope IMHO.
I think it is more of what you as the pilot like.

Hi,

I just don't understand why this Pawnee CG is so different from the manual to what it tells you. My club field was very bad for a while through big bulls (Cowes) and i landed my big spacewalker and lost the under cart. I build it up and and repaired it but for got to check the CG and it was nose heavy and what a crap to land. Anyway as I said I don't under stand why it has changed from the manual.
