HI all.
I have not been on the net for 6 weeks,( overseas) and still not at home(
long story) my work computer has 900 KR emails on it, so I am trying to read
them, and catch up.
I have my Canopy now fitted, forward tilt, (Todd's. )
I fitted the struts last night and The pressure in the struts

I wonder how much air gets in through the gap between the bambi arms and the
forward deck?
See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering
See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics
There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building
has expired.

Maybe enough to keep the pilot cool! I'd think you could build that pretty
airtight if you tried. It looks like John's ought to work OK.

Hi Dan
As much as you want really. I have mine sealed with some of that furry door
seal stuff. I don't guarantee heavy rain though...I've yet to experience it
to find out. Thanks for the kind words Mark.
Well my Todd's Canopy is all but finished. I'm now working out how to fit
the from hinges. Same hinge as Mark L.
Question. Mark and others,
My canopy now fits so well that the canopy sit on the forward deck, and I
have many layers of cloth and Carbon fibre around the nose to deck area. My
I forgot to ask, Can I drill and bolt the hinge through the frame and
canopy, to save on extra build up of Carbon fibre to the hinge area??
Would the holes need to be larger than the bolts through the Perspex even
when it is coated with C/Fibres and glass on both sides?
