I recieved my RV6A finishing kit early 2007. By then, Van's canopy frame was equipped with square tubing for the side skirts. Also the new C-791 canopy skirt brace was included as well. I made a special die to put shoulders on the lightning holes of the skirt brace. This modification stiffened up the brace and hence the side skirt considerably. Send me a PM (wz_bang@hotmail.com) if you would like pics.

This kit which was shipped Dec '95 (but it is nearly finished).

Sounds like getting the square tube brace will be the answer. Thanks for the information John and others. And good work (to all the Canucks) on the Winter Olympics too.
