Completed Sect 38-04 Steps 1 & 2 Stiffener Angles at Roll Bar (to Fuse Skin). Needed to trim Stiffeners to clear bottom edge of plexiglass. Worked on Latch Bellcrank Angles, Latch Links, Latch Pushrod, Latch Handle, and Canopy Latch per Sect 38-04 and -05. Dimpled, deburred and primed. Decided to leave Latch Handle and Canopy handle unpainted, so spent some extra time buffing. Trial fit Latch handles - works great and looks good. Will need to slightly trim Handle so flush with outside Fuse skin surface.
