Brief Description:  Finsh Baggage Windows and Shrink Fuselage Fabric.

* I spent a good amount of time getting the fabric glued to the outside of the baggage window. I had done the first level shrink on the fuselage, and the fabric pulled away from the baggage window metal. I used several variations of heat, weights, shims, and patience to get it attached

Once the outside was attached, I trimmed the center and glued a 3/4" flap on the inside.

* With the baggage compartment worked out, I completed the second and final shrink. It is still amazing to watch the fabric achieve full tension.

* With the fabric tensioned, I installed the plastic strip over the vertical fin and riveted in place.
