Is it feasible to cleco in the upper fwd fuse, then fit and install the canopy, and then remove the upper fwd fuse so I can play with my panel and sub-panel? Later on I'd then slide the fwd fuse back into place and rivet it once my sub-panel mods are complete.

That is the way I am doing it. It is the last airframe item I have left to put on.

Rob,

I think that would be tough, though maybe not impossible. There might be some rivets that are hard to get to near the point that the canopy rests on the upper forward fuse. I was looking at these pictures of my canopy installation to see if there was anything that would prevent from doing things in that order; I'm not really sure, but maybe they'll help you.

Yes, it can be and has been done. I would recommend, before gluing the top on, however, that you hold it on with a couple of screws/bolts and make sure you can take off the upper forward fuse and get it back on. I seem to remember we needed to do a little extra sanding to make this possible, but it was a while ago.

I did it this way and there is no issues that I can think of. The rivets get bucked from the inside channel and there is plenty of room.

Rather than putting this little gusset on the outside as the plans indicate, several builders are riveting it on the inside where it is less obvious.

hey Rob

Yes - that is what I have done. I have the cabin deck, engine mount and gear on while the upper fuse is still removable. Just be aware that some of the fwd fuse rib - firewall and fwd fuse skin - cowl hinge rivets may be hard to set with the engine mount in place.

cheers,
Ron
