Brief Description:  Canopy #3

Since I'm not using the windshield, I deviated from the plans and cut it off early to get the best fitment possible relative to the modified windshield. I cut it long just to be safe so I made another trim cut after I put the bubble with my speed-sloped w/s. Recognizing it might be for everyone, but I love how it looks. Should be slightly more aerodynamic (maybe 1 kt) and definately stronger (3/16 thick throughout due to no stretching-it was flat wrapped around a form). I need to take the canopy frame off the airplane and start really getting the bubble trimmed out. Then I can start drilling holes (scarey!)
