The plate can be almost any size. It can be round, square or rectangular as fits the available space, but should be large enough that the radiated energy will be reflected off the plate and not enter the cockpit. Imagine a light bulb in place of the antenna, and making a shield to stop the

If you're concerned about getting a front-hinged canopy out of the way in a hurry should you need to bail out, you may want to look at the "emergency quick-release" jettison setup on a factory Pitts with the two-place bubble. It's side-hinged, but the concept would be the same. Basically, the

I agree with everyone that a forward hinged canopy is safest and a better idea for several other reasons (although a rear-sliding canopy is probably even better). Mine is side-hinged but I've never had any incidents with it. One reason perhaps is I have a printed question on the lip of the panel
