Default RE: BlueJay Dirty Birdy outline is not accurate to RCM plans.

Well,

The basic problem I see is that virtually no tristock is used to contour the fuse. The glass mount per se doesn't need the section to be altered.

I redrew the internal structure for an easier lighter build but in doing so, I didn't change the side planform. The only area where I modified the planform slightly is with respect to the bottom forward of the wing LE in order to better accommodate our larger engines and corresponding spinner, fuel tank and retract.

It looks like it should be quite straight forward to notch the formers to introduce the tristock into the design.

Good spotting Brian!
