wing rigging

Why do you need an old post? Most of us can tell you what you need in a sentence or two.

Somewhere I have the exact number of degrees of wash between butt rib and the rib just outboard of the lift struts. I have been using .7 degrees for decades, but I think stock wash is a bit more. And no, I don't remember which way is wash "in" - same reason I cannot remember the difference between a forward and a side slip.
 
Oh - and if you are doing dihedral, take measurements at three different points and average them, on each wing.
 
It is misleading. You do not have to level the airplane when using the digital level. A SmartLevel is accurate enough even when operating around 14 degrees. otherwise, the last two paragraphs on page 3 tell you what you want to know.
