  Subject: REFLECTOR:WEIGHT & BALANCE


  I bought a kit in progress, along with manuals, etc. =20

  =20

  With the help of professionals and consultation of factory reps, I am =
nearing completion (minus pain and interior).

  =20

  I have looked through my paperwork and cannot find weight and balance =
information.

  =20

  I simply want a CG envelope and the reference "datum" used by the =
factory, along with maximum gross weight.

  =20

  With these pieces of information, I plan on simply doing an empty =
weight, calculating the empty CG and proceeding with various loading =
scenarios.

  =20

  Does anyone have the W&B info I am seeking?
