CANOPY HINGE INSTALLATION
.....
The canopy is hinged on the right side of the aircraft with one
12" length of MS20257P4 hinge. (Or alternative MS20001P4 hinge).
.....
The accompanying drawings give the details of the attachment. Note
that recessing of the hinge into the longeron is necessary to provide
clearance.
.....
Because the longeron line is curved, it is important to remember
that the hinge must be oriented to provide the best compromise for
opening and closing of the canopy. Some trimming of both the fuselage
outboard skin and canopy frame outboard skin may be necessary to provide
clearance for opening of the canopy.
.....
The hinge is nominally located half way along the stiffener. If you
have used foam to make the stiffener core, you will need to make and
install some plywood inserts wherever the bolts are installed.
.....
The alternative MS20001P4 hinge will provide a tighter fit if
required.
