Cost to install a canopy?
Since you state that you are "looking into" a new canopy, can we assume that
the old one is not broken? If it is not broken, it may be possible to revive the old one with one of the repair kits like Micro-mesh. Available from aircraft supply place, possibly Tim Mara. -- Hartley Falbaum "Roger Worden" wrote in message . com... Our club is looking into a new canopy for a Grob 103 Twin Astir. We received an estimate from a well-known repair shop: $2,000 for the canopy and 50 hours of labor to install. I'm new to this field - I fly 'em, I don't fix 'em. But I'm having a hard time imagining what steps must be involved to consume 50 hours. Hinge, latches... what am I missing?
