The location of the center of gravity directly relates to an
aircraft's dynamic and static stability. Stall behavior
with a CG aft of the center of pressure on a wing will cause
the stalled aircraft to pitch deeper into the stall. The
stall buffet comes from disturbance of the air flow over the
wing root, but the actual stall comes from the tail.
