In light aeroplanes, almost always there's a straight line of CG versus weight in any given configuration.

In airliners, and even more so with military aeroplanes, it's a lot more complex. I used to work with a military aircraft that had a 19 tank system, emptying on an automatic schedule - be thankful it's as simple as it is in light aircraft!
