Apr 02, 2024     45-18 Cabin Door Windscreen step1-3 Silpruf Method - (3 hours)       Category: Fuselage
Prepared the windscreen and the fuselage for the sikaflex bonding sanding the surfaces and applying Sikaflex Primer 209-D, waited 30 min as recommended. Applied sikaflex 295 on the fuselage. With Chiara's help i positioned the windscreen, inserted the clecos to make sure position is as required. Positioned few clips hold in position with the screw clecos. Pressed the windscreen in place, 3/16 gap to the fuselage. Cleaned the gap from the oozed out sikaflex 295. Fine tuning of the screw clecos for proper adherence of the plexiglas to the upper fuselage skin. Removed the masking tape from the fuselage gap. Cleaned the gap.
Moved to the cabin inside in order to spread out the excess sikaflex 295 before removing the small masking tape. Removed both masking tape.
A bit of additional cleanup on the fuselage and inside struts.

On my concerns around forcing he plexiglas in position (3/8" on the right side) vans support replied not to worry and to use the clips to hold it in place.
