Does anyone have the height to the top of the canopy when the gear are on, I'm trying to determine if it will still fit in my garage and get out the door.

Height to the top of Canopy

Hi Steve
I just put my flying -10 in the hangar yesterday and it measures pretty close to 6 1/2 feet to the top of the canopy, but the top of the fin/rudder is closer to 8 1/2', give or take a coupla inches.
Best,

Just made it
When mine went to the airport it rolled out the door and BARELY fit. A coat of paint and it might not have made it. This was with engine, cowl, and avionics and interior installed, or at least in place. More weight will help spread the gear after a few iterations of rolling forward and back a bit. Others have done it as well as I found when doing a search of this topic a few years ago.
