Default RE: balancing

What is minnflyer's description?

People can get to know me by reading my post, and the same with you. Let each person decide for themselves who is rude. I am far from rude.

That is correct. It is sometimes easier to get the plane in a balanced position on the CG machine (or whatever is used) if there is more of the fuse hanging below the wing than above it. Hence the reason for inverting a low wing plane. The CG will not change, it is the same either way.
P.S. Its easier to balance low wings upside because the fuse acts as a pendelum.
It was very helpful of you to point out something that was already pointed out. Way to be on top of things!
