Pitts Sighting Device Allignment

[Eric_Anderson]

My sighting device failed just aft of the weld at the top I-strut bracket. (It missed smacking the aileron by just a few inches.) I got it re-welded and it looks fine now. This is a good opportunity to check alignment. A current peak through it from the outside looking in has it out of alignment with the canopy track. Assuming that the track is in perfect alignment with the longeron, is this an acceptable method to track it?
