Can anyone tell me the best way to mount a clear canopy to my A-T6 Texan? The plane is looking pretty darn good right now, I don't want to ruin it with a sloppy canopy job. Thanks

My method:

I put the trimmed canopy in place with rubber bands just the way I would want it. I trace around the canopy with a magic marker (washable) I then remove the canopy and cut away about a 1/4 in wide section of the covering and some of the balsa so the edge of the canopy doesn't protrude. I then roughen up the area of the canopy that will contact the epoxy, and then put 10 minute epoxy in the groove. I then very carefully, very carefully, very very carefully put the canopy in place such that I will not have to slide it around. I then put the same rubber band back in the same place. Then I cover the canopys edge very neatly with the covering.

ramcharger;
Thank You for the information. I will give it a go, and see how well I do. I'm sure that this will work fine.

RC-56 glue has worked for me and drys clear. Any smears that can be seen can be picked off. The glue holds quite well.

GarrySS;
What is RC-56 and where can I get it? are there any other glues that might be substituted that work as well?

I used E6000 on my last 3 canopies. Dries clear and holds realy well. It can be had at just about nay craft store
