-Drilled the holes that angle up from the bottom of the frame to the top at the rear of the canopy using the template I made previously - worked 'ok' not perfect though. -I re-attached the skirt to the canopy and frame. -Redrilled some of the holes that had been glassed over -Marked where the skirt isn't laying down between where the lower frame rail ends and the center rail begins (see pics) -Used the laser level to draw a straight line along the bottom of the skirt for trimming - not sure I'm going to use it as it doesn't look right to the eye - may be an optical illusion from where the skirt is now and how the fuse is setting on the sawhorses. I need to think more about this one before I get out the cutoff wheel.
Canopy back on but still needs work

Lines where I plan to carefully and iterativly slice the skirt to get it down on the fuselage.
