Wow - lots of great info out there .
Here are some rules I larnt:
1- If the plane is extremely light - the CG does not matter
2-If the plane is too heavy - it still don't matter.
3- If you got enuf power - nuthin else matters .
4-If you ain't got enough power - same thing.
Dick,

I don't think you should make the claim here that CG doesn't matter, no matter how light or heavy the plane is. This is simply not true, and it's not good to give anyone the impression that he/she can ignore CG location if their plane is light enough.
