Re; LNC2's
 
How many have just a flat section where the canopy frame rests on the Longerons?
There are a couple ways to do it, one involving a channel.  I currently have a channel type closure. A 1/2" lip that extends down over the longeron on the inside of the frame. And a little 1/4" lip that covers the exterior side of the longeron when the canopy is closed.  Problem is that I want a nice continuous seam line from the canopy to the header to the cowling.  In order to get this I have to sand off almost all of the exterior lip of teh canopy rail.  This would make my canopy sit flat on the top of the longeron and I would only have a interior rail now. Im worried this would cause large air leaks.
