Default RE: F-4 Phantom DF

Ron,

I checked my CG against your sketch and my forward CG mark is the same as yours. The current CG location on the jet is 1/4 inch behind the forward mark, dry, less the receiver in the nose. So I think once I have installed the receiver and fueled it up, it will be where I need it for takeoff. My fuel tank is centered slightly forward of the CG and the engine is in the duct at the rear of the jet. I plan on doing some taxi tests tomorrow.

Thank you,

MACE
