Manual Reference:  Level the Fuselage
Brief Description:  New leveling process when on its own wheels

I borrowed a couple doorway ramps designed for motorized wheelchairs and rolled the fuselage up onto 2x4 risers. Then I let half the air out of the nose gear tire and that combo brought the fuselage into almost perfect horizontal position. The tail just needed a slight rise that could be held in place so I can proceed to permanently mount the vertical stabilizer. I used a ratcheting tie down strap threaded through the ceiling beam and taped to a lifting point under the fuselage. Slightly ratcheted the tail up, measuring for level several times. I found the sweet spot and that combination held the plane firmly in place while I test fitted the vertical stabilizer.
