The FAA will tell you that you are required to determine the weight 

and balance of the airplane prior to any flight.  In practice, 

though, you've already done that by calculating the worst case 

forward and aft loading when the plane was built.  I guess it all 

depends upon what the inspector thinks during your ramp check or what 

the insurance adjuster thinks when he's deciding if you get a check 

after an accident.



Murle Williams has a weight & balance spreadsheet on this web site 

that includes nose wheel figures suitable for Model IV and later 

Kitfoxes: <http://murlewilliamsaviation.com/downloads.html>.
