I have a question about my canopy. The rear of the canopy is pressing outward and causing the canopy to slide with too much friction.
I put the frame and glass together about 12 months ago. My first flight was in September. I kept thinking the glass would relax some and make it easier to move (like everyone else?s); but not yet. It is not a huge deal, but it would be nice if it moved more freely.
If I remember correctly, I put the canopy together with the frame about ?? undersized, so the completed canopy would be the correct dimension. I guess I miscalculate something.
I have thought about parking the plane outside on one of those sweltering hot Texas summer days and maybe that would relax the canopy some. It is currently 30 degrees outside so I will have to wait a few months for that.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Obviously it is too late to make any adjustments to the frame.
