Gene,<div>I don't know if they have one or not, but check out Fibertech N More. They have canopies for tons of aircraft and may have one for your plane as well.</div><div><a href="http://www.fibertechnmore.com">

Not sure why the link wouldn't work. Anyway, try it again. It should be working now.<div>
</div><div>Even if you don't see the canopy on their website use the contact function on their website to ask about the canopy. They have many many more canopies and parts that they can make then they show on their website. They continue to update the website as they add products to their line. So if if you don't see it make sure you ask.</div><div>

Gene,<div> The last post got me looking. Is this Aspire the one from Hangar 9?? If so I have some good news and some bad news. </div><div>
</div><div>The good news is here is the product listing on Hangar 9's website:</div><div>http://www.hangar-9.com/Products/Def...ProdID=HAN1431</div><div>
</div><div>The bad news is that the product is out of stock on Horizon's website:</div><div>http://www.horizonhobby.com/SearchCm...pe=productgrid</div><div>
</div><div>What's the status of the old canopy?? Do you have the old one? even if it's in pieces it's still possible for you to use Fibertech N  More to get a new one if they don't have the mold for it. You can send them the pieces and they can build a mold from those, and then pull a new one for you from that mold. I know they have done that before for others, so if you start communicating with them make sure you tell them what you status is. Rick and Brenda are great people and they will go the extra mile to make sure you are taken care of as a customer.</div><div>
</div><div>Hope this helps</div><div>

Nope I don't have it. The silly thing blew off over a 60A corn field. I did get an email from Rick and he needs some measurements. So I will do my best to give him something close.

Get a plastic drink bottle and cut one out. Hold it on with rubber bands. All you want to do is keep the wind out of the cockpit area. Won't look stock, but it will work for free.

ORIGINAL: A6TEXAN

see parkflyerplastics.com

Ibid!

Goirish, check them out.

They will not list an "Aspire" canopy, but you WILL find that they have SOMETHING that will fit.
