Default RE: Hawker Hunter

Here’s a CG-calculation which is very accurate and well proven. It is universally applicable for all:

trapezoidal wings

rectangular wings

back-swept wings

wing-only planes

You can even calculate the CG of wings consisting of multiple trapezoids.



Most important: The CG (Schwerpunkt) is always in front of the Center of Neutrality, namely 8% to 10% of distance ‘d’.
