The canopy is glued on with structural epoxy.

The exhaust pipe on the left side will need to be shortened before I silver solder them together, because it is touching the cowl.

Finally, my posts are now up to date! This is where I am actually with the build ... not sure if it will fly this summer ... possibly in the fall ...
