This should clear all speculation about
angle of view et al. Does not look cocked to either side to me. I don’t
have a Legacy but it could be poor cowling fit. Could be lord mount sag.
Broken engine mount would be a possible
catastrophe. Remember the pictures I sent of the ES mount that had broken in 4
places. Nearly a disaster.

speculation
Nice job with the photo. Look again
carefully at the spinner, the gap at the top and the apparent angle the spinner
is at laterally. To me, it not only looks excessively down but severely
cocked to the left. To me, the broken engine mount
speculation probability is raised along with consequent
uncontrolability.
Jeff's fly-the-airplane comments
notwithstanding, the canopy probably came open before takeoff and it is hard to
imagine why or how that was ignored.
