Project: S-21     -     Entry

Mar 01, 2024 1 Windshield bonding Category: Fuselage
Finally bonded the windshield hold down strip today. The 2216 epoxy is deceiving, it will act like it is going to stay up on the windshield but by the time you get it all spread, I had some drips coming down onto the boot cowl. Easily enough remedied, but something to watch for. I also wanted to get a bit of push in on the upper part of the closure strip on each side and couldn't make any clamp hold. I used an open hole on the edge of the boot cowl to anchor a 2x piece of lumber which added enough grip to allow clamps to hold. Used some wood shims to push in a few more spots.
