AHC: P-51 Mustang even more prominent

May I say, I admire your courage in your willingness to admit a mistake?
Learning only comes from acknowledging the mistake and I thrive off of learning. Digging one's heels in accomplishes nothing.

Still, I seem to remember there was a plane where this was an issue. Of course, looking as that drawing makes me realize that although the receiver is smaller profile on the 20mm the belt feeder/de-linker makes it quite a bit larger, something I was not taking into consideration.

And as shown by the Drum or delinker, they were not adverse to a bit of a bulge for clearance, if needed. ;)
