Who does Tandem Canopies???
I'm looking for a good source in California (or the western states) for a canopy maker. Anybody have any good referrals on the left coast? Thanks.

Todd's canopies
If you are looking for a canopy, then http://www.toddscanopies.com/ is one place to look. I'm not sure where he is, but I'm sure he'll ship to you!

You're probably aware of this:

not on the left coast, but I've seen / heard lots of good reviews.

I waited 15 minutes!
I did wait 15 minutes, and no one had answered Ron's question! Perhaps it was the "left coast" thing that got everyone confused.

West Coast
Ray Poquette in Grass Valley, CA has been a west coast supplier of sailplane canopies for many years...
I believe he does one-offs too... but large canopies are many $$$$...

Also check with Airplane Plastics in Ohio. They are the OEM canopy vendor for Van's, but do other stuff as well. 937.669.2677, Jeff and Becky. I bought a custom windscreen for my RV-8, and was very pleased with the product and the service. Nice folks to deal with.
