750 with wing tanks, auto pilot, heavy canopy, lots of stuff and a Corvair engine. Heavy and quite stable. A nice airplane to fly cross country. W&B given that 4 is center, 0 is 4" forward, and 6 is 2" aft (most allowed)
188 pilot, 172.2 fuel = 1065 EW and 3.876 CG Add 135 passenger = 1200.2 EW and 5.546 CG Fuel and people are .5" of the same station, so trading fuel and people weight is OK. I could have a 175 passenger and 13 gallons of fuel. So the spread sheet tells me. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics? See you Oct. 4 and 5, 2013 - KR Gathering in Mt. Vernon, Il ? MVN Daniel R. Heath -?Lexington, SC -----Original Message----- 781 lbs! is that not a bit on the heavy side? What do other planes "typically" come in at?
