| First up I re-match drilled the inboard upper supports. The latch mechinism works fine however the panel bushing is too tight so a new solution will need to be found. | 
|
| Then the crank arm was opened up to 1/4". | 
|
| Dad did a load of prep on the pile of parts for priming. The wind wasn't helping so the actual spray will be delayed. (Only tomorrow left before I have to start packing up for the UK) | 
|
| I went back to the canopy frame structure. Lots of reading, lining up and trying to understand how it all goes together. | 
|
| Then dimpled and riveted the outer braces to the main panel / firewall supports. | 
|
| To finish up the day we spent some time looking at the goose-neck hinges and skin alignment. With the AL blocks in the gooseneck hinges there is a 1/16" gap, without it everything can pull up really close. I guess some trimming is going to be needed. |
