Reading the inputs on canopy latches for Legacy brings
me to ask about latches for the early 235's/320's etc. Those four suitcase
flip latches are certainly simple in design but a real pain to use.
In an emergency, particularly if injured, they could be a major challenge to
reach. Any modifications from the field? Pat Halloran
Pat,
You didn't indicate how your canopy was mounted; original
parallelogram or tilt-up opening style. I adapted the later tilt-up
canopy and associated lock down mechanism to my early airframe. If
you have the original parallelogram style canopy, then Dan's lock arrangement is
a good way to go in lieu of the four hasps.
