These days, it's not even a spec on a flea on the butt of an elephant in terms of the overall FDM calculations - which in turn are not much of a spec on a flea in the overall FlightGear calculations. > Our Aerodynamic modelers always seemed to know where the > empty weight CG was every frame without additional calculations.
