Gents,

So, this afternoon we did adjust and check the location of the seam of the canopy and turtle deck.

Picture 1, POV of the old photograph and of the new photograph of the plug of course are the same. Again the blue lines, all of same length.
When we make a top view picture in the future, I think we don’t see much difference compared with the original picture.

A canopy is flexible before mounting but, knowing the theoretical dimensions can be a profit when material has to be selected or cut for the best fit on the fuselage.
Have attention for the pilot and the AMA sticker. It will be an easy job to locate also these parts on the exact right position in the near future.

Still to do is prepare the plug, a detailed check for symmetry and sanding the surface so all grains are flat and smooth and….. hunting for material to make the canopy, low budget, typical Dutch.

It looks finally we have profit of all the preparatory work, there is only some small carving to do to make the photographs fit. Also the other dimensions of the fuselage and tail feathers are within very small tolerances we already did see.

Final compare photographs of mounted parts of course after the reveal of the completed Simla.

Picture 2, Hanna is excited, Why?
More to come, but not for Hanna, she thinks we are going to make a big mouse now so "Don't touch it!!".
