Safety
Manufacturer set limits for controllability and maneuverability
Certification procedures demand a certain amount of oscillations before dampening out this determines where the aft cg is located

Forward CG gives:
Higher stall speed, Higher elevator control forces (critical
in takeoff and landing phase), Slower cruise, (higher angle of attack
need more tail down force.) More overall stability, Longer takeoff and landing distance,

Weights
Oil weighs 7.5 lbs. per gallon. Since oil is usually measured in quarts, each quart weights 1 7/8 pounds.
The average weight for passengers is approx. 170 lbs.
Aviation fuel (Avgas)weighs 6 lbs. Per gallon
2 gallons of fuel = 12 lbs.

Problem #2 Answer
CG=44.1 No the aircraft is not in the envelope. Can we fly the aircraft? No, not legal One possible solution would be to trade
places between the 212 pound rear-seat occupant and the 115 pound occupant. Using a weight shift equation we can see how far the CG will move.
