Default DG-505 cracked canopy repair

Any suggestions for the repair of a 10-inch crack emanating from the
aft frame member top-center along with a 4-inch crack 3 inches below
and 3 1-inch cracks spaced 1 inch apart further down?
Does anyone have a repair manual with instructions?

thanks, Haven


I read a great article in an EAA magazine on how a guy fixed a B-17
top gunners turret bubble canopy that was extensively cracked and had
missing pieces using
a product called Plastifix.

This stuff looks like just what you need as fixing a crack should be a
breeze and produce excelent results, plus it is not expensive as a
bonus.
