Looking for mirrors

sf3543 · #1 11-10-2007, 06:44 PM

Last week, I was on the VAF site and ran across a link taking me to another site that offered some mirrors that attach to the canopy bow for formation flying and just seeing what's behind you. I think it was a YAK or some other military plane site/club that offered them. They also stated that they worked on RV8's, as well.
If anyone is familiar with this site, please let me know.
Thanks,

Steve,

Maybe Kahuna's site?

Hey Steve, take a look at some of the pictures in my VAF Virtual hangar page - my mirrors came from Autozone - $7 a pair, I velcro them on, and they work great! Yes, I stole the idea from Kahuna....

I just picked up a suction cup mounted mirror at WalMart that works great. I will post a picture the next time I'm at the hanger. I think it was about $7.

$0.99 at Walmart. The included adhesive tape to attach it with is marginal so I popped the reflector out and attached its housing to the rollbar with a sheet metal screw thru it and the tape before popping the reflector back in place. It can be slightly adjusted but I have it positioned so I can see the face on the rear passenger.
