Brief Description: More Drilling thru the Canopy and Frame
I drilled one more hole thru the canopy into the right lower area of the canopy front frame. I did not drill this when initially drilling the canopy to the frame. I also drilled another hole thru the canopy and the aft frame tube on the right side. This hole is one inch lower than the last hole because that hole was ovaled because of a dull bit used when drilling thru the frame tube.
I placed the right inside skirt in place and found that the Meske canopy roller weldments stuck out more than Van's original pieces. I notched the front edge of each skirt by 1/8'' so that the skirts laid properly in place. I drilled the right side skirt to the skirt brace and held a block of wood to back up the drill. I did not drill holes in the skirt at the aft positions to preclude introducing any clearance issues. I drilled the right skirt to the canopy and then to the inside skirt. The holes need to be enlarged for #6 screws.
