c of G issue
LAA and now AAIB have discovered that all Bristells are using the wrong data for Cof G calculations. The data was supplied by Bristell. The position for the pilot and passenger has to be moved rearward by 150mm. Given that the CofG range is 132mm, this is a substantial increase in aft CoG. It makes flying with 2 people on board very, very restrictive!
I am sure that the incidents in Ireland and Australia will now be reassessed.
