Bore-sighting
 

Can anyone point me to a internet resource which has information on the typical bore-sighting standards for the Republic P-47D (first version razorback) and the Focke-Wulf FW 190A-5/6.
My two questions are:
1. Were the bore-sighting processes for World War II fighters essentially the same for both the USAAF and the Luftwaffe, i.e. position the plane horizontally and sight all guns/cannons to converge at a specific location down range?

2. Were the distances the guns/cannons sighted to, typically the same, i.e. 1,000 yards for the USAAF and ? for the Luftwaffe or were these distances generally pilot dictated?

Thank you for any assistance you can provide me.

If you have a perfectly good half-hour to kill here is my first effort at a World War II article: http://achtungbaby.home.insightbb.com/ramrod_iii.htm. Constructive criticisms invited.

1000 yds is too far a convergence for any ballistics used. typically, I believe there is mention anywhere from 250-400 yds was the norm, others may have different answers for Allied 50 cal boresighting.

According to chapter 23 in The Luftwaffe Fighter Force, The view from the cockpit, 200 m for 7.9mm mg, 400m for 13mm, 600m for 15mm, 400m for 20mm cannon, 400 and 800m for 30mm, and 800m for 50mm cannon convergences were used in various combos. Im sure these are general settings and may have been changed according to pilot, Gruppe policy, etc. fwiw,
