A question on aligning belly-mounted antennas (bent whips, blades, etc.):
What's a good reference for aligning these antennas with the airstream and/or the aircraft axis? It looks like, but I can't be certain, that the ribs under the rear seats are aligned with the longitudinal axis? Or are they angled slightly, like, but to a lesser degree than, the baggage floor ribs?
I'm looking to install my antenna doublers under the rear seats and it would be easiest to use the ribs for alignment purposes.
