The ones that I listed appear to be the only airports that have
purchased the system. You can find out more information at the passur
web site. http:///www.passur.com

Ok, Barry, see below for my stab at it...

I drilled the rear plexi & bow on the fuselage and clecoed together. That's what
my vintage of instructions seemed to say... Then I had to use a blind hole finder
while fitting the rear skirts to find those holes again and drill the rear
skirts. Overall it worked fine this way. I would not do anything "off" the
fuselage as you must keep everything in alingment to have it all work out.

I called them on this one also. The instructions don't say anything about it, all
you have is the side view on the plans which is not very descriptive.
I riveted down the front skin, wrapped it all the way around the sides and riveted
along the longaron. Then simply drilled through it with the canopy and layed
the front windscreen on top of that section that wraps onto the rollbar. That
area actually has lots of leeway as you are going to gunk it up with fiberglass
anyways. So you just fill, glass, fill, glass, etc etc etc until the whole
mess is nice and smooth and faired into the skin, windscreen, and rollbar. I
too have seen the skin cut, but I would think that would be harder on the plexi
being pressed between the skin like that.
