I continued today fitting the forward canopy frame to the forward fuselage. Several more trimming and reinstalling steps were need before it fit as required. Then I match drilled the C channel splice plate and the hinge arm tabs to the C channel. I also riveted the hinge arm tabs to the C channel. Lastly I drilled the hinge arm bolt holes and installed the bushings.
