1.1This photographic practice determines the optical distortion and deviation of a line of sight through a simple transparent part, such as a commercial aircraft windshield or a cabin window. This practice applies to essentially flat or nearly flat parts moreso than to highly curved materials.

1.2Test Method F801 addresses optical deviation (angular deviation), and Test Method F2156 addresses optical distortion using grid line slope. Use these test methods instead of Practice F733 whenever practical.
