Working on front fuse/cockpit. Determined that canopy slide rails need to go in, before adding any more sheeting to the sides. And, to get side rail height correct, I need to fit the canopy. So, off to the front for a bit.
First two pictures: Since I installed the air cylinder above the engine box, I added a stop to prevent the cylinder from being pushed to far back, potentially pinching the air line.
Third picture: Top sheet installed. I used water/ammonia to curve the sheet, letting it try over night. Today, In glued it in place, using a variety of straps to hold it in place while the glue set
Fourth picture: Glue set and ends sanded flush.
Installed stop to prevent air tank from being pushed back to far
The stop works - no airline pinch!
Top deck strapped in while glue sets
Glue is set excess on either end sanded smooth
