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..." |

Vintage Aviator's photos show the spacing between the frame and windshield. I tried to replicate it here. |

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 |
