<div>Progress</div><div></div><div>I have been slowly working on the gear doors and in between working on the canopy. Here is what I have so far. I had a couple of old canopies from my previous CG chipmunk builds and found that it was a good fit after cutting it down. I used the front portion of the supplied canopy from the meteor kit and it looks good so far. There are so many deferent styles of canopies for this bird so I think mine falls within that, so far. The front screen will be attached to the fuselage and the back canopy will be attached to the removable hatch. I am toying with making it a sliding canopy, and if I can figure out how to do a light tinting I may do that too. I am using some light carbon fiber strips to frame the canopy. I will paint the frame when she is all done.</div><div></div><div>TB</div>
