with all the discussion about cowlings... It does indeed
appear that the first flight pictures that were included in the sale brochure
had the same effect of showing a more down angle than you'd suggest was
normal... However as we have all learned, the paint lines are sculpted and not
straight and the cowl attach point line can't be used as the waterline, it may
or may not even be close.
As for the comments about the Lord Mounts compression over
time and the engine sagging, that is correct and the factory suggests that you
put one washer under the top firewall to motor mount attach points until you've
flow for a while and then remove those washers. This will pick the sag
back up and allow the cowling to continue to fit.
The
picture of this Legacy on the ground has the same angle of spinner to
cowl.

crash - speculation
Can
the the angle the photo was taken from create this much of an optical
illusion?
