Applied fiberglass layups to create the front canopy fairing
Cut-out fiberglass patterns according to Van's plans
Added additional masking tape
First layer of fiberglass ready to wet-up. I wet it up and sandwiched it between layers of cling film. Then cut out the pattern. According to the plans this help the layup hold it's shape while you transfer it onto on the plane
The initial layer is saturated with epoxy dyed black, since it's visible from the inside. It's blends nice with the glare shield
First layer on
All layers applied
Applied peel-ply..time to let it set overnight...then let the sanding begin!
