Helofixer, A mighty compliment Sir. Condolences to all concerned..

I did a couple of calculations and figured the resultant Cof G just inside, by guessing departed weight at 20 pounds and from station 330.

I don't have real details to hand and used raven II sample I had laying around. Gave me 2029 lbs at moment 188,000 or so.

This depends on MT Cof G. I always try to rig these things as far aft as possible MT of load. A nuisance sometimes with a light pilot, but there you go.

Not sure if that had anything to do with the accident
I think we would all hope it didn't.

tet.

I put the fuel at 130 lbs total and the crew at 200 lbs each with another 12 lbs of gear split fwd and rear seat.. fuel sits at 106" main and 102" aux tank.
