Getting ready to calibrate the fuel quantity and noticed a discrepancy between the PAP and the MM.
MM Weight and Balance section says:
8. Roll aircraft onto 2 inch (5cm) blocks under main wheels and chock wheels.
9. Level the aircraft with reference to the canopy side rail/deck by inflating/deflating nose tire or main tires as appropriate or by increasing or decreasing block thickness.
PAP Fuel Calibration says:
Roll aircraft onto 1 inch (2.5 cm) blocks under main wheels and chock wheels. Check the canopy decks for level and shim nose wheel as required.
I'm assuming the main point is the canopy deck is level either way, and I still have the 2" blocks used for the W&B, so I'll use them again.
