The work on the forward canopy frame goes on. First the hinges get drilled, progressively from 1/4" to 3/8". The the brass bushings are inserted. At first sight, all looks good.



Then I make for the second time the parts for the canopy jettison. I still have the right rod to do again.



After that I put the frame and the skins back on the fuselage. I noticed some problems that will need to be tweaked. The gap between the two skins widened on the left side, but narrowed on the right side which also seems to sit a bit higher. There are also some interferences during the opening of the frame.
The frame is known to be moving a lot during the building as parts are added, so I will wait till I addes the side rails and the rear roll bar.
