Adding small curved tubing to the exhaust. Details and more details seem to pop up just when I thought there couldn't be any more.

Guys: I purposely used this picture of the tree as seen in its glory during the Fall season so call to your attention, that the great Bob Hoover just passed away. I've had a chance to meet him several times and each time, he's always been gracious and easily approachable. He has truly "..Slipped the surely bonds of earth..."

Used Scotch tape. It's very thin. I offset the tape so I could wrap it around the plastic to create the metal frame with its slot for the glass.

Painted the wiring with silver paint. I'm holing a thin strip of tape that was also painted silver. The tape will be used as the frame around the "glass" windshield

Copper wire and plastic tubing at the ends. Notice the curved plastic to fit around the wire.

Cutting out the windshield. I'll take advantage of the rounded edges.

Final shape on both sides. The "frame" sits on the top of the fuselage nice and tight.
