Hi,
Raymer (College text, pg 274) recommends that CG (most forward and most aft) of a tailwheel aircraft be between 16 to 25 degrees back from vertical measured from the main wheel location.

My intuition tells me that it would make sense to be closer to the 16 degrees rather than the 25 degree point. Would this be correct?

Regards,
Duncan
