Brief Description: Glareshield Trimmed/Aft Top Skin Trimmed
I clecoed the instrument panel top skin back in place. I took the aft top skin off and traced the right leading edge side of the skin onto cardboard. I cut that tracing out and transferred it to the left side. I used the hand nibbler to trim the area on the left side and then cleaned up the edge with files and the die grinder. I replaced the top skin back on the fuselage. I laid the canopy rails in place on the canopy decks and then placed the canopy frame in place. I measured the various points of the canopy frame and found that the two aft points of the frame are 1/2" left side and 3/8" right side too high.
Canopy frame 3/8" higher than the roll bar
