Thank Kevin!

Thanks for the positivity, let me substantiate my previous message a bit.
The basics as which are mentioned in the Pilot Operating Handbook are known. For example the aircraft length, the wingspan and the height from the ground to the top of the tail. I am also looking for the more detailed dimensions. For example:
- Distance from the tip of the wing to the aileron
- Length x width of the aileron
- Dimensions of the horizontal stabilizer
- Elevator length at the root and at the tip
- Width of the elevator
- Dimensions of the vertical stabilizer, so at the root as well as at the tip
- Dimensions of the rudders
- Distance from tip of the (front) propeller to the nose landing gear
- Distance between the nose and main landing gear
- Etc.
These are the kind of dimensions I am looking for. In the upcoming weeks, I will be visiting the aircraft to measure all these things myself, but I think it would be good to have reference information to be a bit more precise.

We also have a service manual, but there are not many details about the dimensions mentioned. These are more in-depth about how the ailerons are attached to the wing and how the pulleys work. So every other document that can maybe help is welcome.

I have contacted Cessna several times, but I don’t get much of an answer. I will keep trying haha.
