A quick update on fillet and glass work...

I've cut and installed the wing fillet plates and have made a first pass on the fillets. More work is still required in the rear part of the fillets. The foam canopy mold is also complete and the glass is curing overnight as I write this. I decided to make it in two layers with the first layer of 6 oz cloth and the second layer with 3/4 oz cloth to smooth things out and cover with a fine weave. Another evening of work on the canopy and it should be ready for installation when the time comes.

With these details done, I should be able to finally work on the tail section and install the stabilizer. Once that's done, I'll no longer need a flat top fuse and will be able to proceed to shape the fuse top to contour. Then, some final work in the cowl area and we should be pretty close to having a complete airframe!
