Brief Description:    Begin putting on the canopy
Started installing the plexi canopy material on the frame.

- Peeled back the protective plastic on both the interior and the exterior of the canopy.

- Cleco'd the canopy on the hinge side (photo 3), then the pilot-side (photo 1).

- Photo 2 showes the handle to open the canopy, and the slot in the canopy for it. In testing I found the slot too short by a full 1/4" at the rear, and about 1/8" at the front.

- Used the edge of a drill bit like a milling machine and anlarged the slot at both ends.

- Filed and sanded the slot smooth.
