c of g variations

[mark nichols]

Hi Guys,

im looking for a good explanation of c of g and what happens. So if my c of g is tail heavy and my fuel tank is forward of the c of g, then my c of g will change during the flight from full to low?

Secondly if iam flying a forward c of g with full tank will i not be more nose heavy going back to my original c of g as the flight progresses.

Am i right in thinking that in both cases thouh i would allways be at a seafe c of g because i will never if tail heavy be any further back than an empty setup or if noseheavy a small bit heavier on takeoff.

How much difference does an acyual say 16 oz of fuel make on a say 80 inch plane or is it very slight as it is so close to the actual c of g.
