The CG question is really good, but considering the very conventional tail on the prototype, I imagine it has about the same acceptable CG range as a similar passenger aircraft. The wing just looks like it's way too far back since the engine's in the back instead of the front.
Hopefully it's not intended to do regular transoceanic flights, but it should be fine for shorter crossings (e.g. Great Lakes, Mediterranean north/south, etc.).
