01/10/2021 - contd drilling windscreen - 4h

Continued drilling the windscreen to the rollbar.
In the image below, note the numbers that indicate the amount of nylon washers to go betwee the windscreen and the rollbar.

Nice alignment all the way down.

I still haven't finalized the cutting of te bottom line on the sides.

Note: do this before drilling as I did. I ended up having to redrill the 2 bottom holes in the rollbar because the windscreen tends to move back bit when fine tuning the sides. No big deal, but better do it first.

Trimming of the sides after marking the location in a straight line following the fuselage top skin.
