We have a few Longeze here in our airfield but one, in particular, that is just now finishing up their 40hrs. It has a Lyc 320 on it. If this matches somewhat what you have I will get their weight and balance and copy it.

What a goat rodeo. The nose won't stay down in level attitude without a gallon jug of water on the nose. They don't give you a datum other than to check that the instrument panel is 110 inches forward of the main gear axles then add 40 inches. If that is not the case you adjust the numbers so they will match the factory chart with C.G. numbers. Someone was smoking something to come up with that gem. I think we got it worked out. If not it will probably fly as it has 600+ hours on the air frame. He purchased it and then made a lot of repairs / upgrades.
