Default Skygate Hawk Canopy

Hey guys,

I am looking for the clear main canopy for my Carf Skygate Hawk. I have one ordered to replace the one in the kit that I crack installing it. The replacement one is coming from Carf but I am worried it want get here before an event I really want to fly at in 3 weeks.

If you have a spare or a kit that you will not be needing it anytime soon please let me buy it or borrow it. I will gladly shipped you the new one once it comes in.

Thanks for reading

Jeff

Hi Jeff, I had an issue with mine too and I ordered a new one that was shipped from Thailand thru DHL, I had it in Chile 4 days after and the cost of the shipping was $ 250, so If you choose other than EMS you should have it on time.,,

The rep here told me that he has some coming in and will forward one to me. That is the best I can get done at this time. I know I paid extra before to get the kit by DHL. I wasn't offered an express option on the canopy. That may be my fault becuase I didn't ask.

I am hoping the ones coming in to the US rep will be here in another week so I can fix mine before the 21st.

Bump!!!!

Still looking for one. I am not sure if I am going to get a replacement this week and I really hate to miss the SC jet event so if anyone had a kit please lend me your canopy.
