distortion?

The plan view of the fuselage is slightly banana-shaped. Is that correct, or is it some kind of scanning distortion? But then why are the outside edges all perfectly square?

I do not know anything. They sent it to me scanned into a zip file 12 Mb and I cleaned it up and made it full size into a file Pdf.

I see

Did you remove the distorted outside edges and draw on clean, square, new edges?

ok

Ok, so the scan is distorted. The plan view of the fuselage is bent. Looking more closely at this, it's also stretched. If you measure the fuselage side view against the fuselage plan view, one is 3/4 inch longer than the other. Do you think that might be a problem?

ok

I asked the friend who sent the plan to scan it again, being careful not to distort it again.
As soon as I receive it, I will replace the distorted plan.
