SNIP Time: 05:55:36 PM PST US
From: "Jim Stone" <jrstone@insightbb.com>
Subject: Rocket-List: canopy safety latch
I've got a tip over style canopy with the Harmon handle to open, close
and latch it. Is there a need or requirement for more than that? BTW,
mechanism is very firm to operate in both directions but possibly could
work loose during flight. Van sells a latch for the RV-4, will that
work on the HR?
Thanks,

First flight prep SNIP
Jim,
I have the flopper canopy on mine.
Exactly ONE time I have neglected to double check that the safety latch
was engaged before takeoff. After takeoff,I noticed that the sound
wasn't right and found the safety latch wasn't engaged.
The canopy will raise up about 1/4 to 3/8" on my plane when the safety
latch isn't latched. It is impossible (for me anyway) to squeeze the
rails hard enough to latch it in flight at any speed.
I found it to be unnerving enough that I landed, latched the safety
latch, and then continued.
I'd install the safety latch. IMHO, it helps take a lot of load off of
the standard latching pins.
Vince

prop...but there were vib. problems........(this on IO-720)

The Battery Store in Orlando/Sanford sells them reasonably as well. I bought a
PC925 for my Rocket, same weight as a Concord acft battery with twice the CCA
(cold cranking amps) Much better deal...
