I would rather have the warning on the PFD in BIG RED LETTER= S...perhaps tie it to a really loud aural system.

After reading the discussion on the canopy latching check list I decid= ed to=20 build a latching indicator into my LNC2.  A micro switch closes when t= he=20 latch is engaged and the canopy is closed.  This turns off the msg=20 indicators on the panel.  Take a look at the attached=20 pictures.

Thoughts?
