This is sort of interesting. I just saw an Alon A2 at the local wrecking yard. It was all bent up, and I wrote down the tail number and looked it up in the NTSB database when I got back to work. It turns out that it had nosed over after an engine failure, but when I saw it the canopy frame was only slightly distorted, flattened a little on the top of the windscreen.
That canopy frame is a lot stronger than it looks. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Dold ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://home.pacbell.net/sdold/ Say NO to useless over-quoting ----------------------------------------------------------------
