Two points on a fuselage at waterline 100/fuselage station 93 and waterline 101/fuselage station 276. Lofting coordinates are used for aircraft body measurements. The system derives from the one that was used in the shipbuilding lofting process, with longitudinal axis labeled as "stations" (usually fuselage stations, frame stations, FS), transverse axis as "buttocks lines" (or butt lines, BL ...
Water lines (WL) on a scheme of a fuselage. Baseline is at the ground line, all WL values are nonnegative. In the aircraft design the term waterline designates a horizontal reference line used in alignment checks. The base line of the aircraft is designated as waterline 0 (zero). The location of this base line varies on different types of aircraft.
