   Thanks for the pictures I have the frame and fiberglass top. I assumed the plastic was preformed. It must be pretty thin? Do you know the thickness?

   Catalina canopy

   Does anyone know who built the Catalina canopy? I checked with LP Aero and they didn’t make it.They said if I had an old one they could use it, but the kit I got is missing it.

   Thanks
   If I understand you right I would need to stack the plywood until it fits snug between the tube and the hull?

    Hi I acquired an avid Catalina kit that had three previous owners. Left wing is built and the seat backs and bottoms are cut out and bent. I have installed the control linkages and the hull. In the instructions it says to make plywood trapezoids 4 inches by 2 1/2 inches by 1 inch and place between the fuselage at each weld cluster and aluminum tube in bottom of hull. I cannot understand what they mean because they are too thin lying down to come into contact with the fuselage, and if standing on their sides they are to big to go between tubing and hull. Can any one help me out? Thanks
