Interesting. I find the problem with instrument lighting and the canopy to
be biggest in the flare. Or as is more often the case, when I SHOULD have
flared. Light reflections up into the canopy really don't bother me much -
there isn't much UP that I care about. It's a problem for me when landing
because I can't see the runway when looking out the lower left part of the
canopy (looking just in front of the wing), and your extension doesn't seem
to address that.
I've gotten to the point I hate flying at night because I dread the landing.
I usually smack it down too hard because I haven't been able to see how
close I really am to the runway and flare to late. When I do fly at night
now I turn my instrument lights so dim I can barely read them in order to
make the runway easier to see.
Before this mod, instrument lighting reflections on the canopy had been
very bothersome during night flight.
