Default Update on Creek Extra

Hey Tom,

My CG is at 4.5". I planned on moving it rearward as I got comfortable with the plane. A thought I had was that if I landed early (as I did) with a half tank of gas, that would be quite a bit of weight in the nose (until I move my tank to the CG) which would make this problem worse.

Anyway, I'll be "adjusting" the landing gear this week. I've got an 18x6W prop to replace the Mejzlik... until I make another call to DA. I had an 18x8, but sold it that day to another pilot, so I don't have another CF prop to use.

Back soon....

Mike
