Hi every one

the belgian Mini Pitts made its first sortie, but it's not quite ready to fly. :p

Its weight, as it is, is 164kg (approx 361 lbs) and is expected to be arround 180kg (395 lbs) when ended.

The builder has a concern because presently the CG is at 33% instead of 28%. Is that normal at this stage of the building. If not, what to do to rebalance the airplane without to add weight at the nose, if possible.
