Ok gang, I need a yea or nay on this windscreen layout.
Here's a rendering if it on the cockpit frame:

Here are two different views of the windscreen frame all by itself:

This is similar to the one I posted previously, but the "fit" to the
cockpit shell is much better. The top solid part can have a small cutout
in it or not - the part is 6" by 14".
There is no "face" frame on the windscreen as I think it would interfere
too much with the forward view of the screen.
The area forward of the windscreen would be a flat deck that could be used
to support a standard monitor or an "in your face" mounted rear projection
screen.
I need to know if you guys (and gal?) spot any fatal errors in this
assembly. It WILL require you have a table saw to build. There are
multiple 25 degree and 100 degree cuts that need to be made in order to
make things fit properly.
Don't be shy - I need to know of any problems before any of these are in
the field.
Thanks all!
