Hartmut,
 
Thanks for the reminder on the holes.  I suspect the 415-C models don't
have a 9 degree hole and I don't know when they started putting the
reference holes in the rudder.
 
Darwin,
 
Also, if I remember right, for proper measurement, I think you're supposed
to have someone pull back on the yoke while you check the elevator travel.
This is so that any slack (there shouldn't be much) in the system doesn't
give you a false reading.

Well. 
I have to correct myself. 
The dot is on the rudder(s) . Rudders I meant, not elevator. Geesh.

As a reference point for the  13 degree there is a little hole at the
trailing edge of your elevator(s) wher the elevator should point to when
all the way up. To illustrate that I added a picture. 
(I have an E so my elevator goes even higher) 
Elevator up - limits are : 
C, C/D 13 degrees 
D, 9 degrees 
E, G , Forney, Alon 20 degrees 
Mooney 25 - 29 degrees 
I hope this is helpful.

Hey coupers! 
          Can someone tell me what you reference your elevator angle to. 
Is it the horzontal stabalizer or plumb or 
some combination of the two? 13 degrees up elevator for a 415c , 1260 lb 
right?
