Hello guys , I have a single place Pitts style canopy on my AcroSport 2 I got for my son. Anyway I’m not happy with the latch for it and am looking for pics of what others used to latch the canopy closed for flight. Right now I have this weird home made looking latch right in the middle on the top. It is all metal and hits my head…I thought most used two latches and they are on the bottom sides? Pics and info would be great!
