Thanks, glad I’m not going mad and remember them even as a sooty, I even remember on the HC2 you need to put the v strut back in before removing the second engine, I saw one that they didn’t and the nose sagged, it was fixed by putting an aircraft jack on the angled eng bay decking and jacking it back up to slot one back in.
