Hi Guys,

I bought my S1S a few years ago and one thing that has always bugged me are the canopy rails sticking out once the canopy is closed (see photo). I have seen photos of other Pitts with them exposed like this and some where they are hidden. To get the clean look with no rails exposed are people using a different brand or shorter rail length? Or is there some other modification required? Any insight would be appreciated.
