Brief Description: More smoothing of aft canopy skirt
Did some more sanding on the aft canopy skirt today, probably 4 cycles of sanding and priming and re-sanding. When the sun came out, I noticed that there was a ridge on the right side where the center hole layup was not feathered in, so I worked on that too. At the point where I was happy that I had gotten all the big ridges smoothed out and was just down to the pin holes, I used some acetone to clean the primer off and then cleaned the acetone off with water. I will do a thicker flox fill to cover the pin holes at the next go round.
I wanted to re-check the fit on the fuse, so I clecoed it up to take a look. Looks pretty good.
not a very good picture - too many shadows
cleaned up and installed back on fuse to check fit
