Nepotism, I was not implying you were wrong. If I knew the reason, there would be no need for me to have even started the thread! But, as I have stated several times now, my whole curiosity on this topic started after seeing these pictures with the engines appearing to be out of alignment with each other. Also, so far you are the only poster who has claimed catagorically that all four engines are toe-ed in by the same angle.

TnB, can you clarify that by 'Each of the Engines' you are refering to all 4, or just the outer engines.

I appreciate all the input from the posters. I can happily claim to have been educated yet again by the ppruners!! . Next time when someone asks me why jet engines are toe-ed in I can give them a full and technical answer... although the situation hasnt yet arose!

Tis just a shame you cant go a day on here without being goaded into a handbags-at-dawn debate.
