Cement the balsa B-2 atop B-1. The rear edges of B-2 should be flush with B-1's rear edges. The front and side of B-2 should over hang the windows and windscreen.

Place the 1/16 ply upper cabin top on the superstructure and draw a line across it above C-1. Using a sanding block taper the top of the upper cabin top from C-1 to the front edge. The top should be 1/16" thick at C-1 and paper thin at the front. Cement the upper cabin top in place.
