So Ted, Did that come in any ware close to what you expected. How is
the C.G.

With my little Lycoming I hope for around 1900, but would be very
pleased if closer to 1800. After all I only have a half dozen or is it
2 dozen 5 pound mods

Hmmm. My Super Rebel came in at 1844 pounds with a Chevy V8 up front. I
guess no paint and only the fuselage Moose mods kept it light.

Don't know that I have/had a goal Craig. I'm a bit surprised at the weight,
as I expected closer to something like 2,075 maybe. I've since heard from a
few other Moose folks who all seem to be in the 2,100 to 2,225 range.

I'll email the list my CG location later in the week after I computer it
with a spreadsheet that Dale Fultz kindly sent me.
