Yeah... if you use it, do not expect to fly your model around the room going phew phew phew, because it will break and you will have to fix it! :)
Things to think about... What would happen if you put a werewolf on the moon? h is just a little chair and the human brain named itself!
Not impossible, as we've attested. And correct, Future doesn't cause adhesion like styrene glue does, by melting the joined parts and creating a weld. It causes adhesion in the same way that CA glue does, by surrounding the parts to some degree and then curing hard.

My experience in using it is exactly as Don stated. With all things being equal, Future works really well for me. I thought it worked better than canopy glue because it truly does dry perfectly clear. In addition, as in the case of mounting clear parts, it was so easy to apply. I just pulled a brush along the join and capillary action did the rest. Canopy glues are gloppy and in my experience, they dry yellow.
Well, nope, youre wrong Black Sheep. As someone said its more like an adhesive but can sure hold thing together. I have seen some yellowing in some bonds as they aged but nothing too noticeable.

midnightprowler I use it for headlights, tail lights, no reason it won't work on glass. I also use it for pe. It is strong when dry. I think it dries a bit quicker than white glue as well, it is however, thinner.

^ What he said ^
I find it just about the same strength as white glue or the white-glue-type canopy cements (which means not very strong, but useable as long as you put no stress on it).

Future has many uses and attaching small parts is one of them. Im sure it will hold canopies in place but I find Testors Clear Parts Cement to work really good. I also use Aleene's Tacky Glue to attach pe and canopies with excellent results, providing a stronger bond than Future.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!

Ask me about Speedway Decals
Works great for pe parts and acetate panels.
Don't think of it as a glue. Think of it as an adhesive.

BlackSheepTwoOneFour Future is not a glue. Future can be used as a gloss coat prior to decaling or to coat canopies of aircraft kits. But glue? Impossible.

Of course it's possible. I've read about many people using it for photoetched parts.
I use it to glue smaller photo etch parts and it holds quite well. I've also used it to secure canopies without any issues. If my canopy is set in an open position, I use CA gluse. If closed, I use Future.

I'm sure you could; however, I woudnt expect it to hold very well
I've heard or read somewhere that some modelers use future as glue for the clear parts instead of white glue. Would that work?
