Weighed my airplane today (without fabric and paint on the wings)and was pleased to find that it should come in below my max target weight. which is 1,050#. Mains weighed L 449.5 R449.5 and tail 66. Total of 965.
Unless I put over 90 pounds of paint and fabric on the wings I should be good. All the loading scenarios at this point are without baggage and have it in the back half of the CG envelope with an O320, wood prop and an 11.5" motor mount. A metal prop would allow some baggage.
