I am plans building a 701. I am ready to cut the fuselage skins (7-F-2), and

noticed that there is an additional line of 15 or 20MM added to the 

outside straight line. What is the reason for this? Is there an engineering

reason to create a curved line rather than a straight line?

Your input would be helpful. THANKS SteveRusell Paris, TX

The extra  15 to 20 mm creates  a balloon shaped fuselage which is stronger 

because it uses the strength of the skins  IE rather than compressing and 

buckling, it tries to stretch the skin when ever tension is placed on the 

fuselage in any direction.
