Digging the hole deeper
This year, for Christmas, my wife offered me either a new interior or a new canopy. I have been flying around for the last five years or so with a small crack in the canopy (the left wheelpant did it, but that's another story) and she thought it looked tacky to have the crack covered up by a Rich's Incredible Pyro sticker.
I couldn't very well get a new interior, and ruin my reputation, so I got hold of Todd's Canopies in Florida, and he happened to have exactly what I needed, on the shelf. When it arrived, I took out the old canopy and ground down most of the glass, leaving this flimsy frame. Installation has not yet started, but I thought I'd show you what I have to begin with.
