When I bought the start key I included a latch/lock keyed with the same key. Too sosme time to fit the latch to the canopy as it happened to to sit right in the canopy frame. I had to cut out a section of the frame to take the latch, I then cut a slot in the fuselage return behind the canopy. The latch simply rotates 90 degrees and locates in the slot in the fuselage. Great having it keyed with the start key - should make life easier .....
Did some more work on the bus bars - made a up a ground/negative bus bar for the instruments on the panel.
Preparing the latch assembly hole.
Latch assembly installed in the rear of the canopy.
