701: I am drilling the longerons on the top of the sideskins. And when i studdy the "curvature" on the predrilled hole-pattern, there is something wrong....All the skins has a gently curve (making the fuselage stronger) But the topp of the sideskins are curved the wrong way (at the last 3 feet close to the front end) I AM THINKING THAT THIS MUST BE A CNC PARAMETER GOING WRONG, when programming the cutting/drilling machine
The drawings do not say this, the drawing says a top at the midle of the sideskin and down at both sides....(sharper curve down, at the aft)
I am going to take a picture of the "strange" curve.
Anyone seeing the same thing?
