Default RE: Centre of Gravity - wet or dry?

Set CG with EMPTY tank. As said above, if you set CG with full tank, the plane will be tail heavy when the fuel is gone. Not good. Ideally, the best place for your fuel tank is as close as possible, and just forward, of the CG. But this is usually not practical.
