    Subject: RV-8 Canopy Removal
    For folks who have finished the canopy, I'd like to know how you remove it should you need to. As I fit mine today, even before the skirt is on it, the canopy almost touches the vertical stabilizer before the Delrin slider block clears the slider. With the skirt on, I wonder how you can remove the canopy other than removing the slider?

    Stan, your kidding right? Just slide it rearward until it gets to the end of the track, lift the front off the roller stubs and then slid it rearward some more until the nylon attachment bracket passes the slide rail. Then lift it off. Its not much of a problem until you get the skirts on. Then getting it off is about the same, but you cannot set it on a table as before because the thin fiberglass skirts extend below the frame and should not be allowed to support the weight of the canopy. I made a special bench to support the canopy on the normal three points.
