Started working on a new support system fer the rear canopy using some leftover slotted angle. I'm going to add some EMT plastic pipe as support shims fer the locking pins. The canopy will no longer be attached to the end of the hatch but it will be secured to the end of the aero cap support rails. This will allow me to open the hatch without removing the rear canopy first.

I will eventually replace all the wood supports in the aero cap frame to slotted metal/angle since I'm pretty happy with the design of the current setup. I would like to try some aluminum box tubing fer weight savings but I will have to see what the differences in costs will be first. I just have to tweak the height of the front supports to drop them a little lower.
