I am building an RV7 with tip-up canopy. While working on the panel, I accidently let the canopy slam down and broke off a 1"x5" corner on the aft RHS of the canopy. Looking for advice on how to fix. I would like to bond the broken piece back in place if practical (the broken edge is very jagged so not sure if this is a good idea). I see that some have used Plastifix. I was planning on doing a "targa" strip, which would hide this area and provide additional support to the cracked area. My questions:
1) Is it feasible to bond the broken piece back in place and how to do it?
2) guidance on how to do a "targa" strip (I'm thinking fiberglass as opposed to an aluminum one)
I will be removing the canopy and storing it (until needed) to prevent any further bonehead moves.
