Jim C. and all,
I've been welding up the fuselage, and discovered a mistake that I made when
I laid out the sides. It seems the front spar carry through came out about
2" behind the top of the triangle windows at each side of the windshield. I'm
thinking of adding a piece of 3/4 X .035 from the underside of the carry
through, to the mid door location. The other alternative is to cut the tubing at
the windshield slant, and the forward upper door opening, and splice pieces to
put it back to plans. Or, cut those pieces out altogether, and weld new ones
in. The front spar carry through is just tac welded in. What do you guys
think ? I'm including a picture.

Chuck, cut out the mistake and weld in new tubing, easy to do at this stage.
