Default RE: CG / Landing gear relationship

Hi guys,
Thanks for the input. Very interesting. Please excuse my ommission as I failed to mention that the plane has actually a tricycle type landing gear setup (sorry Horrace!). Indeed DA ROCK's quotation seems to be VERY relevant in my opinion "Where the rubber meets the road (runway) is the important location" and judging by what has been stated in the drawing its should not be more than 5% aft of CG.

Thanks for your input!!

Reuben
