-More trimming of the skirt around the aft end. -In a previous session in drilling the canopy to skirt holes I noted that I had let the front end of the left skirt slip down and therefore I didn't have edge distance on the forward most hole. -Sanded the aft junction between the two skirts (L/R) and the area where I needed to add material on the forward end of the left skirt. -Drilled and cleco'd a piece of metal to join the left/right sides as the most aft point -Layed down mylar on the canopy edge and on the rail where I would doing the layups. -Layed up 3 layers of fiberglass on the outside of the aft junction and 2 layers on the left front skirt This was my first composite work since I left TASK Reserach some 15 yrs ago but it came back pretty quick and this stuff is mostly cosmetic. I was a pilot at TASK not a fabricator so that's why I'm building a metal airplane not a composite one : ^ ) Good session and fun to do something new (well sorta new).
Top pic is the junction that I will join and the bottom is where I let the front of the skirt get low
