Hi everyone!
Well, this is my first post. I'm taking delivery of a 320 MK-II kit in
a couple weeks. It's the apex of a 12 year goal after I saw my first
Lancair at the factory when it was located in Santa Paula, CA.
Here's what I want to know. I am having a difficult time deciding which
canopy style that I want. I like the fighter style option better, but I
also like the standard style. What I would like to request from you all
is some input regarding which type of canopy that you have, why you
chose it, and what do you think of it now. In the past I have decided
on different things because of style, and at times have been
disappointed because the style was impractical or had some serious side
effects that aren't mentioned. I know that there are pros and cons to
both styles. So, if I can gain some input from you all, then I'll have
an easier time deciding.
I hope to hear from you.

This came included in a rather lengthy post with the observation that when
it was originally posted some weeks back there was only a single response
to the query. I know that there are many of you out there who are flying
your completed 2-seaters and you obviously have one or the other style of
canopy installed... if we can get you out of the cockpit and away from the
hangar and your "baby" long enough, please take a moment to jot down what
you like or dislike or would do differently if you had the chance regarding
your canopy installation and share your thoughts so Curtis (and the other
soon-to-be-builders out there) have some opinions on which to base this
important decision.
If you've never sent a post to The List before, why not make this the time
to send your first? If you're bashful or would rather post your
observations anonymously, that's ok too, just send your post to me directly
at marvkaye@olsusa.com and I'll handle the rest.
