Effects of CG position with airplanes handling

Question 1

If C.G. is too far forward (Nose Heavy)

Answer 1

aircraft will have to fly at a higher angle of attack

drag will increase

lack of elevator authority at slow takeoff speeds, elevator might not produce enough nose-up force to rotate

on landing, there may not be enough
elevator force to flare the airplane

both landing and takeoff runs will be
lengthened if C.G. is too far forwar

Question 2

If C.G. is too far aft (Tail heavy)

Answer 2

airplane will be unstable

difficult to recover from a stall

airplane could become flat and recovery
from spin would be difficult or impossible

Question 3

if airplane is too heavy

Answer 3

then you must remove some load
(baggage, fuel, passenger)

1. Shift Load
2. Remove Load
3. Add Ballast

Question 4

if airplane is out of balance with CG outside of specified limits

Answer 4

then you must move the CG position by shiflting the load
