Sanding Canopy Fairing ( 4 hrs )
Started rough sanding Canopy Fairing per Sect 38-31, Steps 1-4 (also Van's video 38-04). Created 6" sanding block in Step 1 with the 4" radius matching template. Using 40 and 60 grit. High areas and general shaping went quickly, but takes a lot of sanding to carefully remove excess epoxy over forward tape and along aft tape edge along Canopy. Difficult to determine if sanding epoxy or black vinyl tape underneath - so frequently inspections are necessary.
