I just had a look at your W&B and found a small mistake you have the arm of
your mains located at -2.25 in.. You then added the arms instead of
subtracting them.
That makes your balance 5028 + (-2(675)inlb)/ 632lb = 5.9in
Or
5028 - 1350 = 3678inlb/632lb = 5.8in
The cell D10 should read "B10*-C10" and Cell D11 should read "B11*-C11"
I've attached a correction to the sheet.

I don't see that Noel. Av8r3400's weight and balance appears to be correct to me.

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the position of the mains is about 2.25" aft of the fwd spar leading edge. This would make the arm a positive and the first calc would be correct. The error only seems to be the (-tare) shown in the item block.

My mistake, the datum in this case is forward of both the mains and the tail
wheel.

Being that the datum is the leading edge of the plane when level you are
right... and I was wrong. For some unknown reason I considered the arm to
be not form the datum but from the CG... go figure.
