Ok, I switched from a linear factor to the initial arc correction table seen below, and will now be refining it. The first results you see are similar to the previous output, with some lines displaced more than others, depending on the altitude. Since I am using an artificial horizon, I have no sightings in the 30s or below. There are very few sightings in the 90s, since I only took a few shots around noon. I will see if the "right shift" continues to be a thing.
