Are = these offsets for Glasair or other aircraft?  I was told by Factory = Rep that the Glasair had minimal offsets.  So I was not going to = build them in. The other issue I see is that degrees are based on the = exact same thrust point which I have never been able to get them to give = me and I do not have a cowling to generate.

Mark,  Do not forget the "offsets" with the = engine.  The exact numbers can only be sourced from the factory, but from memory the engine has to face to the right 1.5 degrees and down 1.78 degrees.  Check these figures with the factory.  = regards,  Neil.

Should put the CG close to the same spot as for = the Lyco.  Thrust point in the same spot.  Green bars were = part of the Glasair mount for a Lycoming.

Thoughts?
