"Hi! I just want to know, if there is a possibility to calculate, or just to get the number of CG%?? I have Marc Jordan´s charts and on the first page there is a trim table, but I need the CG% MAC, to use this chart! It is not very important (because I have the Takoff Calculator), but it would be quite interesting to use it sometimes and I am also interested in the CG%, just for fun! <!--emo&:P-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> Best Regards Michael"

"You can find the MSFS center of gravity setting in the aircraft.cfg file In our aircraft it is set at empty_weight_CG_position=-5.000000,0.000000,0.000000 You can now see that loading the aircraft improperly will result in a change to the CG which would be your job to sort out. <!--emo&:D-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> "
