Aft canopy seal on CH650 canopy
This afternoon I took some black baffle seal, cut it to a narrower width, and used it to create a seal for the aft edge of my CH650 canopy. I used a leather punch to progressively punch and attach to seal working from one side to the other. Very happy with the result.

Hi Dave
That looks like a good idea. I did mine as the plans say and on the l/h side it sits down tight to the rear bubble but on the right it has a small gap which I will bet will make a squeel. One mine is flying I might follow your excellent example.
