canopy for a focus
 
i'm in desperate need of a canopy for a focus. i've tried piedmont models but they don't have the part in stock and no longer make the plane. if any one has a suggestion, please make it known.

I've seen others looking for the canopy for the Focus also, If someone had one with the flanges still on could alway's do layups in fiberglass and save weight also. Theres a lot of Focus out there.

See there's one. I would also be interested in one, don't know if I will ever put my Focus back together but you never know it might happen if I have parts. Of course if I don't find one I can always make one from foam and make mold to fiberglass but I slow when doing all that. Have even done foam and glassed over top then use something to eat the foam out. The fiberglass is always lighter than the plastic and easier to repair.

i don't know how or i've never tried to make anything out of fiberglass. i'm willing to learn but it sound's like it's time consuming, and expensive.

"Hydeout" canopy is identical. I think PAC models still produces the kit..
