Hello Alan,

None of the bushes or fittings should have to be reamed. If pins don't fit,
the problem is one of alignment.

Correct and also Incorrect.
In normal level flight, what you are saying is correct however, at high
angles of attack, the wing then pulls forwards. If you have trouble
understanding this, ask yourself why the blades of an autogyro don't rotate
in the opposite direction to what they do.
