I guess it's personal preference and if it turns out the CG is correct, I'm ok with landing with 0.5lbs towards the front, but the thinking is, it should not make a huge difference with a lifting body jet like this F-16XL, the lifting area is a lot bigger than it looks in the picture. Xicoy CG meter was spot on with a similar CG postion for my CARF J-10 and T-One Eurofighter. As I mentioned we will know more this weekend.
