I seem to remember between 8.5 and 8.625 inches aft of the leading edge of the wing at the root. I thought I was going to be able to make it down today but my knee is killing me this morning.

Make sure he has a ton of "up" elevator throw as well, at least 1.125 inches. And take off holding full up elevator, releasing it on rotation, this takes the load off the nosewheel, the thing can get away from you REAL fast if you just slam the throttle to it with no elevator input.

When are you guys going down, maybe I can time my drugs.
