Europa-List: cockpit module trimming

Thanks to all those who responded to my rudder pulley access holes query.

Now, here's the next one: The manual says trim to the joggle line at 
the front end of the cockpit module. Mostly that's fine, the tiny 
line on th einside of the CM follows the edge of the joggle across 
the rudder pedal support and up the sides of the tunnel. However, 
along the top of the tunnel there is a discrepancy. The joggle is 
about 20mm down from the edge as supplied, then the tiny line is 
about 20mm below that again. If I trim to the line rather than the 
joggle, there will still be abut 30mm of flange left, and that will 
be about the same width as up the sides of the tunnel where line & 
joggle coincide. The drawing appears to show that the flange is about 
the same width all around the tunnel.

Roger at the factory says he thinks (HE THINKS) that the line is 
where to cut, but I'd welcome a second opinion. (I'd prefer not to 
have a flange 20mm too narrow!) Anyone remember checking this with 
the factory while Andy or Neville were still there?

regards

Rowland
