The KR-Cockpit

The locking system for the landing gear

A larger view of the dash, plans are to redo this and add an EIS.
The Bondo putty worked great to fill in small pit holes in the glass.
   
   
We started out by building a frame to hold the canopy in the same shape as the airplane.
The canopy down into position, and hole in the middle.
We put Bondo on the 2x4's and set the canopy down into the plastic covered bondo to hold the bottom of the frame.
We used a grinder to remove the old fiberglass and paint. Once we could see the edge of the old plexyglass is was easy to cut it free.
Used a dremel tool to cut the new Plexy.
This is not in its final position but, its one of the new plenums.
The other plenum
Since the old frame did not have a "lip" we used popsicle sticks to hold the new plexy. A hot glue gun did a great job holding the sticks.
sand paper was used to rough up both sides of the new plexy.
glass was placed on the outside first, that gaps between the plexy and frame were filled from the inside with glass bondo. filler was used to create a nice shape and curve
Dad hard at work. all of this was done in 1 1/2 days.
I touched up the interior, and I will be replacing the bracket to hold the canopy up. I will be using the hinge set up that I saw at the Gathering.
All I have to do yet is remove the coating and put trim on the edge.
It is hard to tell from this view, but the paint job came out very good.
Shine,,, shine, shine. I painted it @ 10:00 pm and still got a good paintjob.
