I posted this picture to show that even the full scale guys/girls have trouble lining up their cowls.

I do understand, but are you sure it isnt more of a parallax problem with the camera? (I am just more tolerant / less critical):D

You may find that the cowl sticks out quite a way at the sides and acts as an engine cooling exit.

correct, if the camera was focused to a dead on profile the lines would match up

Bingo,

I'm not being critical. Many people, especially reviewers, complain about this on our models.
I'm just pointing out that we're not the only ones with the problem.

Yes, it could be due to the angle of the shot, but it seems pretty extreme for that.

In order to get it to fit correctly, I just accepted it. This is the Great Planes Super Sporster EP. Not sure why I didn't have the wing bolted down securely.
