Default Loose Turtle Deck ?

Has any one else had a problem with a loose turtle deck that leads from the end of the canopy to the stab? It appears that the bent balsa sheeting is glued to the fuselage bulkhead pcs. but not to the underlying balsa sheeting on the fuselage sides. You can actually feel the two pieces separate when gently squeezing the fuselage sides (as if you were picking it up). I also think I heard it rattling when the engine is running. I ran a whole 2oz bottle of medium CA along the inside sides where the two pcs. of balsa sheeting are supposedly joined. It seemed to have fixed most of the problem.
