I tried a few methods to get the centerline to actually be accurate. It seems like most builders just take a long tape measure and just do their best. I tried to use a laser feature on my level to get a perfect line. This had its own complications because the canopy and the laser had to be perfectly aligned (0 relative rotation). In the end, I used a combination of the laser and just pulling a string from front to back to mark the centerline.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5E43C6D5-2519-47E7-A0F3-895D8AD55917_1_105_c.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8690\" src=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5E43C6D5-2519-47E7-A0F3-895D8AD55917_1_105_c.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"530\" height=\"398\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5E43C6D5-2519-47E7-A0F3-895D8AD55917_1_105_c.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5E43C6D5-2519-47E7-A0F3-895D8AD55917_1_105_c-300x225.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5E43C6D5-2519-47E7-A0F3-895D8AD55917_1_105_c-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/?page_id=8672\">[&lt;&lt;Prev]<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/?page_id=8679\">[Next&gt;&gt;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[&lt;&lt;Prev]\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/?page_id=8686\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">  September 16, 2021<\/span><span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-8686","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8686"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8686\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8771,"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8686\/revisions\/8771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
