Me? Not me. I've also been down that road. Sometimes we have to see for ourselves before we give up. I wish I still had that drive I had way back then to experiment and get "stuff" done. So much to do. So little time. Go have fun and don't worry about it. ;-) john h MKIII Titus, Alabama I can hear John H laughing all the way from Alabama :) Bill Berle ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:12:48 AM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Help with FS Wing Gap Seal From: "Richard Pike" Cut off the top part of the windshield that projects higher than the hoop. Make up a piece of aluminum that can replace the top of the windshield that you just cut off. Shape it to seal the area above the windshield to the gap seal. Maybe put some velcro on it where it touches the gap seal, if necessary. Get some blind nuts like these or similar and put about three of them on the inside of the hoop. https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/hapages/anchornutsmk1000.php?clickkey=3026140 Install the wings, install the gap seal, install the new windshield top piece that you just made, and then put in some screws to hold the windshield and windshield top piece securely to the hoop. You have added one small step to the assembly process, but you made a lot of other things simpler. -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kolb Firefly Part 103 legal (Ready for a test flight on the new 277) Kingsport, TN 3TN0 Forgiving is tough, being forgiven is wonderful, and God's grace really is amazing.
