Simon,

You must compare BOTH photos.  The frame was in the same position on the
bench when both were taken.

The frame was resting on the engine mounts but the purpose of photos was
to show the relationship between the stops and the housing for the shaft
that ties the LG08 's.  A line drawn between the two stops was not
parallel to the axis of the shaft.  Believe me, the stops were NOT
correct.

Anyway, my frame is a Classic one and as such does not have offset
engine mounts AFAIK.

Regards
Kingsley

Kingsley,


In those photos the mount is resting on the engine mounting points.
These are offset toward the starboard side of the aircraft.  I suspect
that the "error" that you found is supposed to be there.
