What is the "manufacturers cg range" for a Kolb MkIIIC? (And I hope this isn't one of those, "...but YOU'RE the manufacturer..." kind of deals, because I didn't build it.)

If there isn't one, would those of you with MkIIIC's please tell me you CG range that you use? Thanks!

Robert,
Although I don't have the specific number for you, 20-30% is too broad.
(In other words---no help). No offence to Mike, but he was just throwing
out the basic CG range for ALL airfoils. Hang in there for the exact
number you're looking for! Ask again, if you need to.

Went and looked at my plans, printed circa 1990.
Greater than 20% and less than 37%.

Hey Guys,
What's the "Angle of Attack" to go with that CG range ?
The range doesn't do you much good unless it's being checked at AOA...

the CG range.
