Dale Alexander and I developed this spreadsheet for doing weight and =
balance.

You will need to change the data to fit your plane from your =
measurements and scale weights.
My web page was broke after moving it to a new ID, but I think it is all =
fixed now.

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?
