The good news is that anything (Pax, pilot, fuel, baggage) brings the CG aft. The forward CG is in spite of my three bladed MT prop (20 lbs lighter than it's Hartzell cousin), battery aft of the baggage compartment and oxy cylinder in the baggage compartment. I published all my numbers on this forum once before, should be easy to find. My temps run cool, too cool on both the CHT and oil temp. With OATs of less than 10C I need to close the oil door to get the oil temp well into the green, the colder it is the more I have to close the oil door. The CHTs struggle to get above 300F. All this with a standard ES cowl. ===== Pat N747PW Lancair Super Duper ES, Flying!
