Why is there such a fascination with applying nautical terms to Aviation
I'm as big a nautical fan as any but in nearly 30 years as a professional Pilot i've never seen the terms 'Port and Starboard in any official aviation publication.
What am I missing....?
I think itīs a British thing...one of the last remnants of the Empire. I flew the Fokker F27

and it was full of Port / Stbd references...awful airplane.
Now back to the thread itself, this appears to be indicative of a badly out of rigging airplane. Expensive.
