Bryan;

It isn't easy but at least it's a start. ... and it's better than a WAG.

We're talking aeroDYNAMICS here. I'll bet the CP moves around DYNAMICALLY
as speed and attitude change.

I was wondering, if it was easy then why have several aircraft companies
had to modify a design, after flight test showed instability, by
increasing the size of the vertical stabilizer?
