Brief Description: Taper Attach Angles to Fuselage Contour
I used a vixen file to taper the outboard face of the two canopy attach bracets (angles) to match the contour of the fuselage skins. I then polished the brackets on the scotchbrite wheel. I also had to trim the seat back adjustment plates on the top of the F705 bulkhead to allow clearance for the canopy attach brackets.
