Comparing a forward CG position with an aft one, the forward CG position will cause a…

  • A
    decrease in range.
  • B
    decrease of the stalling speed.
  • C
    tendency to yaw to the right on take-off.
  • D
    decrease in the landing speed.
In the normal flight condition, the main wing creates lift and the elevator creates drag. Due to a forward CG position, more downward force (drag) is necessary at the elevator. Drag increases = range decreases = rate of climb capability decreases.
