With the selection made the canopy was ordered: RV-8 from 1/4" material with Bronze tint, Now some further details need to be worked out and get a start on the actual design. The dimensions for the new canopy were roughed out and the RV-8 canopy profile was overlaid on the drawings to see how the basic fit would workout. The canopy will need to be pulled ou further to the sides towards the aft end but it is close enough and the profile of the frame can be varied some aft of the slide area.
