A fuel distribution system for an aircraft having wing and fuselage fuel tanks. The system includes sensors for indicating the level of fuel in each tank and at least one selectively controllable pump for moving fuel between the fuselage tank and one or more wing tanks. A controller is configured to monitor sensed fuel levels in the wing and fuselage tanks and selectively control the pump to shift fuel between the fuselage tank and the one or more wing tanks to maintain the aircraft's longitudinal center of gravity within preselected limits.
