canopy for tiger 60
Hi does any one know where I can find a canopy for a Carl Goldberg Tiger 60? I bought one from an local auction and it was missing and Google or the net has turned up nothing,so I thought I would turn to the pros out there for some help. Anyone? please! Thanks hope you can point me in the right direction.

Here is the product page for the Tiger 60 kit. It has a listing for the canopy. Try calling Great Planes tomorrow and see if you can get one from them.

You're going to really enjoy that aircraft, loved mine... doubt you'll find anyone that would say different.
I too needed a new canopy, just made one from balsa and covered it with grey film. Took a couple of hours... couldn't wait for a replacement.
I (and may others) dropped the engine thrust line about an inch and build new lager rudders. Not necessary but does improve what is already a marvelous Dave Patrick design.
A wonderful sports acro. Enjoy.

Thanks for the reply! I had the tiger 40 and loved it and ended up selling it. Then this fall I picked up a tiger 60 with retracts built in and all it needed was to be covered,and now that is done and all I need is a canopy.
So I will keep looking but might have to do your idea. Happy flying to you!
