Painted canopy frame. Worked on center instrument panel
17 May 2017 4 hours

Masked of the top skin of the canopy prior to painting

All setup outside to paint

After painting was complete I installed the canopy pin blocks.

Canopy painted with pin blocks installed

Fabricated the canopy spacer blocks that will be used during installation of the canopy on the fuselage

The center instrument panel needs to be installed, prior to installing the canopy jettison handle for the next step. So I decided to vinyl wrap and do the remaining steps on the center panel prior to moving forward with the canopy

Soldered wires into the potentiometer that will get mounted into the center panel to control the cabin lights
