Good day ladies and gentlemen,

Am about to purchase a project however there are some damages to the project which am seeking advise from you guys that have built a wooden plane.
In regards to the damages in the attached pictures what is/are your suggestions.

1. Damage to the canopy rail which is delamination, do I have to rebuild this section or a glue and binded pressure will fix it?

2. In regard to the damages on the fuselage, I know the whole ply has to come off but any suggestions on how to peel the ply off to replace it.

All response are highly appreciated.

Thanks
