My lower fuse is in a jig, and I can twist it slightly to get the torque tub
e perfect, BUT, I have no clue it will stay there when the top goes on. It h
opefully should, but what happens if it doesn't? Does it matter if the tail p
lane isn't exactly parallel to the wings? I'll go out here on a limb and say
it doesn't matter a rats. The difference in a 1 degree displacement, which I
would consider a big error, or dare I say variance, would present a negligi
ble difference to the relative wind, and in terms of creating an asymmetric l
ift or displacement vector, that was noticeable, I just can't see it. I'd go
so far as to say you could build in an error that was large enough to be vi
sible when standing 10' in front of the spinner, a tail plane error of let's
say 5 degrees, and it would make bugger all difference. It might even impro
ve single pilot flying with asymmetric weight distribution.
Same with the wings. They were set, weren't they, when the module went in. I
reckon chasing our tails for perfection is going to only address the glarin
g anomalies, but if your cockpit module was installed half correctly, as my k
ids would say, "just chill".
