Me: The airplane should pitch down at stall because the center of gravity is ahead of the center of lift

FE Hoppy: Not really?

CoG could be some way behind the "centre of lift". In this case the CoG was at 29% MAC. The "centre of lift" would generally be at 25%.
Thanks. My bad again. I should have written neutral point instead of center of lift.
