tors.org.uk>=0A=0AGraham, No I meant it as writ! The original well thought
out design was conceived around a 912 and a simple prop as I understand it.
The significant extra weight of a 914 and a wobbly prop hanging on the fro
nt might be expected to make it relatively nose heavy. Ten pounds extra on
the p[rop probably just about accounts for my 3 lb of lead. Regards, David
