    Hi Eddie,

    Im gonna help you out, but only tomorrow ( its 9 pm in portugal and i dont have the elements here that i need), at least the best way i can, ill put the drawing you posted in autocad (which i have at the office) and ill draw the vectors in order to know the angle... this wont be 100% exact, but, if your drawing is correct, it will be pretty close

    Talk to you tomorrow, take care

    Alex

    Hint: exterior angles are supplementary to the corresponding interior angle.

    I'm not sure if these drawings are 100% scale of the original
    We need an answer from someone owns a real 737 Shell, or has bought a ready one as product

    These drawings i found them in old MarkusPilot site and other similar sites

    thanks all

    Eddie

    A real one would be better. We don't really know if even an aftermarket shell is 100% correct.

    I'd ask an active 737 pilot that I know here (some of you met him in Lelystad) but I gather it'll be difficult for him to get measurements pre-flight. So let's hope someone that owns a real life 737 nose which is no longer attached to the plane can help out.
