Brief Description:  Aligning the Canard

Checked Fuselage level, and confirmed pins are level.

F-22 top was not particularly level, so adjusted it, and the Fuselage sides on top of the Canard cutout so they are level fore/aft.

Placed Canard on Fuselage and was amazed to find it easy to level and aligned perfectly reference the centerline of the upper Firewall, measuring from the top. This seemed so unlikely I felt like downing tools and went and having some drinks.

Checking the incidence found about a degree of difference between one side of the Canard and the other. Not much I can do about this now, so continue. Also notice, perhaps due to the revised incidence template, that when the incidence is correct both front tabs are touching F-22 at the top, but leaving a 0.15" gap at the bottom. Some adjustment of the sides and the top of F-22 required, but it is time for drinks.
