Brief Description:  Left skirt gap fix-final and trim & right to match

Unclamped the wood blocks from left skirt and removed the peel ply top and bottom. Trimmed the excess epoxy from edge and then reclecoed on to the canopy frame to check fit. Much much better! Only on small area needs some filler underneath but that s it. Ill leave this as is for now and move on to the right side.

Trim cut the lower straight edge of right skirt to Vans scribe line and then marked and cut the radius bens aft to align left to right. Also made some trim cuts on right in the curve area and that semed to cause a small gap to the fuse skin. I have decided to try just filling the underside with a slurry mix later to se how well that works before making the vertical cuts approach again. will see...

Too hot for much more today
