As usual probably several things. Maybe the mould was too "safely big" in
the first place but...it can also be exacerbated by having to trim back the
bottom to get a straight fin line. This in turn may be made necessary by
inadvertent tilt back of the fin when you attach it to the upper fuselage
moulding. Easy to see after the event as usual.
Oh well, lets stir up a similar one. Anyone had trouble with getting the prop
in the middle. There was a thread way back where it was concluded that an
offset to the right (for the Rotax) was ok, due to prop. wash. But the fuel
pump is hard up against radiator inlet so if you are out to the left you
can't retrieve the situation, as the radiator touches the cowling at lower
starboard. (Thinks, looks bad to purists but does it matter that much ?)
