Hey Dan, I am using many of the details from N357CJ that have served well for 11 years now. In the case of the canopy it will have a joggle on all edges that will be flush with what ever surface the canopy is meeting upon closing. That is about 3/8" of over lap. Then on which ever surface is most convenient I will install a commercial ?stick on bulb door seal from the building industry. Sometimes called a smoke seal. It is usually available in black or white and compresses down to about 1/16". Following the installation instructions and applying to a glossy painted surface I have had very little trouble with it becoming damaged or wearing out. ?? ?You didn't ask but I think that in the picture you can see the way that I am latching the canopy this time. I made a 1/4" rod that travels thru several guides in the canopy frame and will penetrate the roll over bow of the turtle deck as a positive latch and will prevent any sucking up and gaps at the top of the canopy in flight.
