I found these pages from the manual which are much clearer and, easy to print graph.

Question for anyone:

How does one calculate or develop what I've seen called (Wedge), (Level Line), (Incidence Board)?
To ensure the fuselage is level, and in this case for the ASK-21 is 1000:52. And also in this case there is no reference of exact placement. Wouldn't it change the level if the board is more forward or more to the rear?


Here is wording in another manual;
The horizontal reference line is the centre line of the fuselage tail cone or a 1000 : 45 wedge template levelled out on the top side of the fuselage aft portion
