I elected to simply make the windscreen edge even with the buttrib. I don't see this joint as waterproof in any case. My logic, for better or worse, was if the edges were even, there should never be any stress placed on the windscreen from this source nor any friction on the upper fabric at the rib.

For outside parking and camping, I purchased the fuselage cover which Kitfox sells....excellent product....great addittion to my Kitfox gear.
