Question about RV-7 or 9 tip up latch handle

[mcencula]

Can someone with a completed -7 or -9 that has a tip up canopy tell me how many degrees the canopy latch handle rotates from fully latched to full travel open? Hopefully it will be easy for someone to just unlatch their canopy and use a protractor to measure the angle of the handle with the skin.

Thanks!

Greater than 90 degrees on mine.

Yes............. but it releases way before that.
