I only had a few minutes to work on the airplane tonight, but I couldn't resist seeing how the most recent layup went. I removed the peel-ply, and there was the cured canopy skirt in all its glory. I traced the guide marks, which were dimly visible through the semi-translucent fiberglass, onto the top surface of the skirt.
It still pretty flexible around the longitudinal axis, but plenty stiff along its short dimension where it needs to be. I trimmed off the jagged edges and removed most of the tape residue from the fuselage and canopy, and here is the result:
The fit of the skirt to both the canopy and fuselage skin is excellent. I need to even out the dip in the middle with filler, but that at least is something I know how to do.
