REFLECTOR: Reflector Leveling A/C

[Ron Brown]

Hello Jim,

If memory serves me right, the bottom of the CS spar next to the fuselage and the tip of the nose are the level points.  Use a clear plastic hose with water in it.  You can use the bottom of the wing next to the fuselage and 1/4" below the nose with the wings on.  Just make sure you are level side to side too.

  Can anyone help me with the best place to get a for & aft level on a finished aircraft. I want to do a new W/B and can get a side to side level off of my spar.
  I did not build the aircraft so don't know where the level spots are. I have the level for the main wings and canard with the small jigs used to build it, but they do no have the same incidence.  the firewall and the main spar seem to have enough glass and epoxy on them to make it difficult to find a spot that a level will sit on and give me an accurate reading. 
  Thanks for any help you can give me.
