Hi MB2002,

This Boeing link High-Altitude Handling explains that on an aircraft using flight control computers to enhance the Positive and Relaxed Longitudinal Static Stability, the C of G can be further aft than on a conventional aircraft. But I don't think we load the aircraft so that the elevator force is upwards. I thought it was always downwards - but at a reduced magnitude.
