Going back a few messages about the aft brace on the canopy. Rather than remove it all togther and then installing a new brace or adjustable system as discribed in an earlier post, I simply cut out the front portion of it and left the rear most piece in. Once sanded and painted it will look just fine. No more building or weight. It will keep the canopy in shape as well. It fit nicely behind the headrest of the rear seat.

I'm all balanced. P-160 has been test run. All that remains is final setup on the radio and off we go. Still busy with shows and work, but I hope to have 1st flights by the end of October.
