According to Bill Rewey, when calculating the C.G., the pilot and the passenger their C.G. is where their navel is. In my case it's 10" ahead of the back of the seat. At 270 lbs. how forward of your back is your navel. That might be enough to influence your C.G. location.Then again you could live in fantasy land and use the FAA standard for Wt. & Bal. and assume each person is the "standard" 170 lbs.Alternative:Eat a late breakfast of oatmeal (good for your heart), skip lunch then have a light and healthy supper.Do this for about a yr. and you'll feel good and look good and feel "svelt". and the girls will shower you with attention.Yeah, right!!Roman Bukolt NX20795----- Original Message -----
