The Lancair belly is E glass. What is the proper method of attaching the coax shield to the ground plane. At the present time my BNC connector to the antenna is isolated from the ground plane.

The coax shield should be attached to the connector thereby physically connecting it to the ground plane - that's how mine is....

I would attach a jumper wire to the to the shield (preferably under the
crimp) and then attach that to the ground plane with a screw or bolt.

What kind of antenna? If it's like

or a shark fin style antenna, then the act of mounting
the antenna to the ground plane takes care of the
connection between BNC connector shell and the
ground plane.
