Today I finished the riveting the aft skin now that the window is trimmed to the final size. Once I finished riveting I then spent some time finishing the surface prep for the SikaFlex process.
I also added a 1/32″ monofilament line to set the gap between the window and the skin for the SikaFlex.
I also spent some more time adjusting the canopy latch in order to get a better fit. I think it may be getting close, but final adjustments will probably need to be made continuously until I’m happy with it.
