• Support (2) • Fuselage hatch
Required Tools and Adhesives
• Hobby scissors • Canopy glue

 Step 1
Use hobby scissors and a hobby knife to trim the side
windows from their sheets. Leave a 1/8" lip to glue the
windows to the fuselage.
 Step 2
Test fit the windows from the inside of the fuselage. Trim
them as necessary so they fit flush to the outside of the
fuselage. Use canopy glue to secure the windows into the
fuselage. Install the window into the fuselage hatch at this
time as well.
Note: You can use epoxy as well, but be
very careful not to get epoxy on the nice clear
windows.
 Step 3
Cut and fit the two supports to the fuselage. Use medium
CA to glue them into position.
 Step 4
Test fit the front windscreen into position. Trim as
necessary. Use canopy glue to secure the front
windscreen to the fuselage.
