I decided I didn't like the very open sticky appearance under the wing so I sheeted it over. Real windows don't seem to age well on models, they seem to be the first places age shows itself, so I got rid of them.

I didn't want rubber bands so I used 1/4" x 20 nylon screws at the trailing edge of the wing, I built a cuff that goes over the leading edge of the wing to hold it there. I've included a picture of how I made a cuff for my LT-40 ARF.
