  I finally bought a Pitts S-1S!

I'm going to weigh the airplane to update the weight and balance and I need 
to some info from you S-1S folks out there:

-What is level reference on the airplane? (I'm guessing you raise the tail to 
level the top fuselage longeron?)

-Where is the datum reference? (firewall?)

-Where are main and taiwheel locations relative to datum?

Thanks,
Paul Klusman
