I am to the canopy/windscreen fairing on my 9A slider build.
I have been using the Van's plans and they call for 1/4 to 1/2" fairing
overhang over the canopy. That was written a long time ago and I have
learned that in Experimental, best practice changes daily.
I have some minor problems with the canopy/windscreen mating.
The canopy bar does not match the roll bar bends at the 10 and 2 o'clock
positions. Dan H was kind enough to recommend how to correct that with
a micro sandwich but with only 1/2" overhang it could be a problem.
So....what is the norm now days and if it's over 1/2" was it hard to open
the canopy when it came time?
Much Thanks before I start putting glass down.
