Actually, the convergence I can probably handle.  My main concern is the 
downward angle, ie:  How far ahead of the aircraft should the beams hit 
the runway at a given altitude.  If all else fails, it'll have to be 
best guess...

By the way, you should be receiving the check for the clear tips in a 
day or two...
