Greetings,

 

I have been contemplating whether or not to remove the canopy hinge cross tube.  It does get in the way of all the wiring and electronic gear on the avionics shelf.

 

Any opinions on the merits of the Canopy Hinge Cross-Tube?  Is it necessary for canopy stability (in winds)?     Have you taken yours out?  or left it in?

 

Thank you,

John
