Thanks Edward.
I agree the root hinge starts one inch from the root. But, in terms of the
117 cm measurement, I'm betting the drawing in figure 14 is incorrect. I'd
like someone at Europa to corroborate that. In my book it clearly shows the 117
cm measurement starting one inch out from where it was shown in figure 7.
