Brief Description:  Drilling the Canopy 1: The splice plate

New section in the plan is entitled Drilling the Canopy. So I clamped the canopy in what looks like the final position. I have a stop in front which is 1.75 inches from the from edge of the skin and the centerlines are lined up for and aft.

I clamped the canopy to the roll bar. Next step is to put the other arch for the canopy frame up against the canopy and drill the splice plate. I really want to climb in and do this so I can see that indeed the arch is up against the canopy all around.

But, NO, I stepped on the airplane fuselage and I don't like it. Seems to fragile. I'm NOT getting in. Darn.
