External fuel tanks on left wing are misaligned

Hi everyone,

 

Found a bug with the alignment of external fuel tanks on the left wing pylon (station 1), weapons mounted on this pylon are too far back compared to the pylon on the right wing.

 

It's fairly easy to see with the external fuel tanks (here with the 50 gallon tank):

Here you can see that the rear of the tank would interfere with the left aileron:

I don't think bombs are affected, though it's quite a bit more difficult to tell, but both fuel tanks are certainly affected.

The port side drop tank of either size is set too far back in the wing. So much so that its filler cap gets covered by the leading edge. When viewed from above you can clearly see the starboard tank extending farther in front of the wing than the port.
