If the crack in the right place, you could paint a frame (line) where the crack is after it is repaired. If you chose to do this, reinforce the repair with some lite glass cloth. Just a silly thought. ;-))

  Thanks Jim,

  I also got another idea about using foam safe CA.  Both ideas sound real good.  The trick now is to get to the underside of the canopy without destroying the floor.  This was Mark Atwoods plane, this canopy and hatch is a work of art.

    Tape it on the inside with clear scotch tape to close the crack and use canopy glue on the outside. It dries clear. This would be temporory 'till you can get another. You might want to leave the tape inside.

      I just came home with my new El Nino Saturday.  Today I had the canopy off and was nosing around the inside checking out the setup.

      I leaned over the bench and heard a crack, I had just leaned on the canopy and put a 4 inch crack in it, lengthways on the top.  

      The question I have is, is there a good way to repair it, without using thin CA, because of the fogging that CA will cause?

      Or does anybody have a canopy that they would be willing to part with?

      TIA,

      Ken
