Default RE: B-17 Engine nacelle position

Next step is to insure that your nacelle patterns are perfectly in alignment with the line of flight. (assuming that they're not offset)

Since I know that my wings are equal length, this can be done by measuring from the tip inward to the nacelle pattern, insuring that it's the same on both sides. (See images)
