29% or 37%?

From the above, it seems fuel transfer to the tail is automatic once in cruise. There is no mention in the BEA info that fuel was manually transferred forward, so how did the CG get to 29% in latest BEA note, from 37% in initial reporting?

37% CG would be a big difference from 29% in manual pitch control. It's real easy to over control with aft CG.
