I almost paid the ultimate price today. Took off, gear up, flaps up, canopy off......HUH [X(]
Cut back on the throttle, gear down, flaps down, set down. I got lucky. I have seen what has happened to a few guys on here who lost their canopies on their flash.
Just didn't do a final check.....won't do it again.
Just a friendly reminder, take your time and double check!

I can't argue with that one.....that was a rookie move.
I have to say though, it seemed very controllable, fortunately I wasn't up to speed when the canopy departed. It was weird seeing the plane come in without its canopy.
