First step at the builder assist program at the Lancair factory. Rather a big job. Don't try to rush it, lots of "fitting" required
My brother Norman working on the canopy/fuselage interface during the first build week
Andy doing more sanding. Note the detail in the fuselage as it's provided to the builder
Fitting the inner canopy frame frame to the fuselage
Fitting the canopy to the inner frame
Bonding the canopy to the inner frame
Now for the outer canopy shell - more fitting
The outer shell has been bonded to the plexiglass and inner shell. Lots of clamping
Another view
The moment of truth. Looks pretty good, but there's lots more to do later on...
