Toe-in?

May I pick your brains please?

I was standing outside The Orange Tree in Richmond the other night getting rediculously drunk having just enjoyed England ... er ... putting the All Blacks to the sword. Anyway, every couple of minutes another plans passes over, and I couldn't help but notice that some 737's seem to have a large amount of toe-in at the front of the engines. Just to give a bit more technical help as to which 737's, it was the ones with the thin engines, not the fat engines!

On all the other planes coming over - as far as I could tell - the engines were pretty much lined up fore and aft. So why not on these 737's. Of course this was after a gallon of Guiness so I could have imagined the whole thing!

Thanks,
