  Note

  The angle or slope of Descent as given in the Range

  Table is only correct when the gun and target are

  on the same horizontal plane, the angle of sight
  

  must be added to or deducted from the angle of          
  

  Descent given in the Range Table according as the
  

  gun is in a plane above or below the target
