Re: KR> Canopy pull up from aero loads
I'm keeping it simple. I am using window sash latches like Joe Horton. The emergency release will be a device tied into the canopy hingepin which will be pulled and the canopy then can be ripped off.

KR> Canopy pull up from aero loads
Larry, I agree. The age of GoPro is awesome for finding things one cannot see otherwise. I never knew my canopy lifted that far, or even at all. In the coming month I will work out a latch to hold the canopy firmly in place and check it with h-stab camera again. If anyone out there has a good mechanism to do this for a side-mounted canopy, I am all ears. Thank you for the point out. iMs, Zip -Original Message- From: "Flesner via KRnet" Sent: Monday, June 11, 2018 3:07pm To: krnet@list.krnet.org Cc: "Flesner" Subject: Re: KR> KR flyby = motivation for the day > > KR2 motivation for your day.
