Getting ready to re-do a J5A weight, balance, and equipment list, and maybe re-create the 309.
We all know that the J3 and PA-18 w/b are fraught with error traps, the major one being the main gear with respect to the datum. I am looking for similar info on the J5 - I have this vague feeling that the aircraft in question was weighed and gear position was not part of the subsequent calculation.
I know Clyde has all this at his fingertips, but if any of you can help it will save me from bothering him.
