Re: Fitting the fuselage halves

[Graham Clarke <gemin@cix.compulink.co.uk>]

I doubt if it was originaly physically shorter as the mould would 
presumably have ensured that it wasn't. But it certainly sat on the 
bottom half in a way that gave a shortfall at the tail. I guess the top 
was convoluted somewhat and the pull straightened it out. Then the 
clamping and self tapping followed by the Redux maintained it all in the 
new flatter position, without the need for tensional stress.
