This is my second RV, the first being an RV-7A first flown in 2005 and sold in 2012.

Epoxied the left side rail in place.

The only portion of the canopy that doesn’t fit perfectly is the left rear.  Here I used some leverage to move the side inwards while the side rail was clamped in position.

While the epoxy was setting up I went to work on the cowl.  There is a lot of on-off-on-off work when fitting the lower cowl.  Get a couple rolls of clear tape, you will need it.  Everything looks pretty darn good so tomorrow I will cut the top of the lower cowl to match the top, which I cut today.  At this point there are no paint gaps except for the aft portion of the top cowl.
