Why not go ahead and move it forward and put in a couple small side windows?

The problem is that I already have the rear of the canopy where I want it. If I bring it any further forward the rear frame will start to impinge on my view to the side/rear. I have come up with a plan to build the forward frame out to the distance needed to mount the hinge on. That is the preliminary solution to the problem anyway untill I put some more thought into it.

Why not put it where you want and build the frame to suit? See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you at the 2011 - KR Gathering in Mt. Vernon, Il - MVN There is a time for building and it never seems to end. Daniel R. Heath - Lexington, SC -Original Message- The one I have is at least 300mm shorter front to back. This might not sound like much but it will now put the forward edge of the canopy just ahead of the front

Hi guys After looking at a few of your websights, specifically ML's, I have come to the conclusion that the dragonfly canopy sold in South Africa is not the same canopy as was sold in the USA. The one I have is at least 300mm shorter front to back. This might not sound like much but it will now put the forward edge of the canopy just ahead of the front spar (not by much) which will put it only just ahead of the instrument panel. Installing the forward hinging system is going to be a challenge. It is a big improvement over the old bubble canopy but is still not what I wanted, BUMMER! Jeff Scott your plane will still be the sleekest. Regards Dene Collett Avlec Projects Port Elizabeth South Africa
