Have you taken into account the difference in the thickness of the window, approx .108”+- and the canopy, approx .185”+-? That’s what I’m getting on the ones I have.

No I had not. Good question!

Looking at the blowup of the canopy top, on the PDF it would explain why the Aft canopy shim seems to sit a hair higher in the picture. So my guess is it should work out nice and flush with this fix. I will update results after my canopy is built.
