hi Joe yeah that would be the case if the plane was past the forward limit kr's that have been set towards the forward limit allow can be loaded better with out going out of balance but yes u are right! I have flown a kr2s in australia and the owner set his plane up and is can carry more fuel and weight and will remain in balance right up to MTOW which is the ideal situation I reckon the plane is still nimble and fun to fly right through the envelope! I beleive with tail dragger's they can fall on there nose with full fuel and no passengers on board. I am interested in what speeds aircraft are attaining with out mass balancing of the elevator as my elevator is built and what peoples oppions are as flutter can be destroy an aircraft inflight! cheers
