Bizjet Aircraft CG Location Example
Table 8.7 and Equations 8.54 and 8.55 are used to locate the CG. SI units are used.
Both the mass and the CG location are slightly different than the preliminary data. This results in the CG angle, в = tan-1 (8.4 -7.44)/1.357 = tan-1 0.7 = 35 deg. This is a satisfactory angle to cover the maximum fuselage-rotation angle at takeoff.
The CG is located almost at the middle of the baseline aircraft length, and the wing is positioned just behind it, which indicates that the CG is in the forward position. Proper CG positioning can be established after the aircraft neutral point is determined; the forward and aft CG limits can be ascertained by fine-tuning the

component positions. Determining the aircraft neutral point is not addressed in this book, but it is approximately 50 to 55% of the wing MAC. Therefore, in this case, only small changes may be required to fine-tune the aircraft CG limits. Changing the wing position may be problematic, but a small degree of engine repositioning can be effective. Relocating heavy onboard items is easy and effective for last-minute fine – tuning, especially during flight-testing.
