SeamusG,

After reading your post I don't feel so bad. I had a time with the canopy as well. After measuring and remeasuring I glued it and it wouldn't fit after it dried. I wrestled with it and got it to work.
But I love this plane. I flew it all last season. Originally came in tail heavy fo me. I shaved off a half a pound of weight and I threw a Magnum XL.53 on it with an APC 11 x 5 prop. It's a better flyer when it's lighter. I like it! I would like to change out the wing tube and landing gear to carbon and shave some more weight.

Good luck
Frank
