While at SnF I looked at a few composite planes. Cessna, etc. I noticed the windows had sealent adhesive around the edge between the cabin top and the window, with a little lap edge over the window. The paint job only went up to the edge of the sealent. I.E. like the install of a front windshield of a car.
Do you glass around the plexiglass for structural support, or is it for appearance.
Can you just fill the gap between the window and cabin with black adhesive instead of glassing over both. It seems like you would not have issues with glassing over dissimilar materials, and chances of cracking or crazing.
