Hi Guys, page 6 of the plans.  The 104 1/4" dimension.  Is that from the center of the tail post to the center of the bent seat back tube or down the center line and to a center point if there were a straight tube there?

its the distance to the point before the 2" curve backrest, the vertical tube is slanted backward from station 3 bottom, note the 112-1/4 dim. at the bottom  to station three from the tail center, so the slant is 8" in 25-3/8" vertical.

Pete, it is your latter estimate as you stated- down the center line and to a center point if there were a straight tube there-  page 7 shows this in top fuselage view

Thanks Fellas.  I thought so, just double checking.
