The engine I have for my -9A (o-320E2A) appears to be somewhat lighter than the rest of the o-320 family.
I also have a wood prop that's fairly light.
With all the talk about people building these planes nose heavy, I'm alittle worried I might be light in the nose.
With a cross country configuration (passenger, bags, reserve fuel) I wonder what my baggage capacity might be.
Just curious if anybody has been in this situation and how much weight they could put behind the seat.
I like the idea of fly on the back half of the cg range (without exceeding the aft limit, of course).
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks!
