Kyrilian,

 

OK, now I have done that.  That only raises the canopy about ½-3/4 inch, which is enough to get a hold of it to raise it when you are standing outside, but it is not enough to allow a cool breeze when you are taxiing.  I was looking for something to hold it up 2-4 inches and that would secure it as well incase it caught a sudden tailwind gust so it couldn’t lift accidentally.

Bill,

 

No, the plastic goes on the aft face of the canopy rollover just below the place where the latching fingers hold down the canopy and where the extended fingers would come in contact with the rollover when the canopy is lowered.  I will get some pix.

Greyhawk,

Thanks for the idea.  I will have to look at it and see how it works.  You are saying to let the canopy down on the latch fingers with them extended.  If I place a piece of plastic under the bottom of the canopy, will it not interfere with the complete closing of the canopy?  I need to take a closer look at it.
