I've thought exactly the same thing, and suspect that it's true. I mentioned this to Bill Clapp (whose canopy looks more rounded than my Dragonfly also) and it was his opinion that the thing was floppy enough that you could just about form it into whatever shape you wanted. Mine was simply set in it's free state on top of the foward deck and longerons and what you see is how it turned out. I'm very happy with the flattened top and almost vertical sides, since it allows a good view of the ground, and no interference with my head. I've always been under the impression that the Todd's canopies were somewhat "blown" looking, as compared to the Slipstream Technology's Dragonfly canopy, and from what I've seen so far, I'm still of that opinion...
