Does it become smaller / more negative with increasing angle of attack (and vice versa), then the airplane is stable. A trimmed state means the moment is zero around the CoG. Once the airplane moves away from the trimmed state, the change in the moment determines whether the airplane is stable or not. | |

And too forward CoG may also cause a pitch down moment that cannot be balanced, yes? | |
