2 to 3 inches above CG depending on the options/equipment.

Thanks Scott
That is exactly what I thought, and very interesting.
That would also mean if the engine was mounted parallell to the keel it would be pretty close to CLT.
Next question is,
*Is the H.S mounted with an amount of negotive incidence ?(AofA) in relation to the keel. and if so then
*does the machine exhibit true airspeed stability?
Thanks Sam.
