Another month went by, with only 6 hours of work on the plane. Ah well, better than nothing. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I made the two F-644 canopy hinge support channels out of this:

\u00a0\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

Then I prepared the F-697 subpanel reinforcement.
\nCut & deburred…
\n\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

…then drilled to the center subpanel.
\n\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

I also managed to make the\u00a0 canopy seal support angles. The centre one is pretty easy; trim to length, debur and flute to form the shape..
\n\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

Then drilled it\u00a0to the centre subpanel.
\n\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u00a0chose to trim\u00a0the angle at the centre reinforcemet rivet, instead of setting this rivet with less than\u00a0minimum edge distance.
\n\"Fuselage<\/a><\/p>\n

The outboard subpanel angles took much longer to fabricate. The had to be cut instead of fluted, due to the radious.

Fast forward a couple of hours…
