I have glued my Europa side windows into the doors, as per the manual.  However
I do not see any mention of filling and sealing the joint between the window
and the door frame.  When I built my Lancair, we had a similar technique, but
then filled the gap and put a strip of 2 bid over the frame and about the first
3/8 inch of the transparency.  It is a lot of work, when you include all of
the filling and painting.

What has everyone else done?  Is it not necessary to use a glass fiber strip to
lock the transparency in?  I would appreciate anyone's experience.  Thanks.
