I thought the azimuth was represented on the horizontal axis, in degrees. I was asking about the +2 to -2 numbers.
Sorry... In the upper sketch, it's the deviation, in degrees, from the rotor plane, i.e., of a blade tip from the plane perpendicular to the rotor axis at the blade root. The flapping angle, as seen by an observer riding that axle. In the lower sketch, it's the deviation, (as seen from an observer riding the tip path-axis) of a blade tip from a plane passing through the blade root and parallel to the tip-path plane.
