Hi all,
I=92m trying to understand how to determine CofG of my DG-100. In the
maintenance manual there is such sentence which I do not understand:
=93The fuselage must be leveled so that the top of the aft fuselage boom
has a tail-down slope of l00 : 3.67.=93
I understood that I need to lift up the sailplane tail, but what does
100:3.67 means? To what height? Can you help me with that?

BR,
Artiom.
what it means is if you take a distance of 100mm along the boom the front
of the distance line has to be 3.67mm higher than the rear of the distance
line or put another way a down angle of 2.1 degrees
