If I had some photos of My KR online I could direct folks to them.. My canopy is displaced up slightly to allow for extra head clearance. And sweeps down towards the turtledeck. It reminded me of some modern aircraft when I did it, but I can't recall what aircraft or helicopter I modeled it after.
Who knows what this will do to in-flight drag, but I've got a reasonable amount of headroom. I'm working on getting my N541RY.com domain back. (I let it expire and someone bought it due to all the KR-net traffic... looks like I should sell stuff on it). I have secured some other N541RY domains last night (n541ry.us). Hopefully I will have my domain up by next week. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oscar Zuniga" <taildr...@hotmail.com> List-Post: krnet@list.krnet.org Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2003 08:01:48 -0500 To: kr...@mylist.net Subject: KR>Canopy and turtledeck > Ross indicated that he test-fitted his cockpit and canopy wearing a bike > helmet.
