Hi All,

I was given this sighting device pictured (DENT-AIR, and no I haven't asked Bill yet)... but it seems to me that the angle is way off (at least on my eagle) which made me wonder... is the angle of the I strut relative to the wing the same on the eagle as it is on the pitts? is it the same between S2A/B/C pitts ?

Thanks in advance!
