| Covered and mounted the glareshield. The glareshield I got from Greg Hale is made to slip over the front of the upper forward |
|
| fuse. I finally figured out a way to mount it. I ended up using some 'clip-nuts' #6. I used 3 of them, one on each side of the center |
|
| stack, and one on the pilot side. The Aerotronics fiberglass panel is not perpendicular, and so there is not enough of the upper |
|
| forward fuse skin that projects above the co-pilot side. It turns out that 3 screws with the clipnuts hold it extremely tight. I used |
|
| some of the same domwed ss screws with finish washers to attach the glareshiled to the clipnuts/upper fuse skin. I covered the |
|
| glareshiled with a piece of matching seat leather I got from Classic Aero. this is the third time I've tried glueing leather to |
|
| compound curves surfaces, sounds like it should be pretty easy, but..... anyway, the results are not perfect, but they are |
|
| acceptable. After seeing the glareshiled mounted, and using the LED panel flood lights installed in the overhead, I decided |
|
| against installing the LED lighting strip on the underside of the glareshield. 1. because it will look ugly, and 2. I really dont need it |
|
| with the overhead lights. |
