Step 3: (part 3) Cutting the netting to match the Flight suit
First thing you want to do is put on the Flight suit on. Make sure you still have freedom of movement even with pants and a shirt on. Get down on your elbows and knees and take a look at where the canvas should be placed according to where your elbows touch the ground (You actualy may find it easier to
skip to attaching the canvas to the elbows now before applying the netting). After all that is done, lay the Flight suit out flat on the ground and place the netting over it like shown in the picture below (depending on how wide and long the netting is, you may not have to put the netting down over the Flight suit as shown below).

The general idea is that we want to cover the whole backside of the Flight suit, and the arms and legs. Once you have put the netting over the Flight suit, pin in down and stretch it out. Make all the neccisary cuts like the one in the picture below. Notice the cut around the zippered boot pocket. You don't want to sew or glue anything covering that area (since there are very little pockets you will have once you've attached the canvas, this is one of the only ones you will get). Pin down the netting and stretch in out again. Time to take out a permanant marker and put a little dot below all of the knots on the Flight suit, including the arms and legs.
