But they're not! The 303's cockpit is totally different from the typical
DG arrangement. Instead, its cockpit arrangement is similar to an ASW-20
or a Kestrel.

Only on the Slingby Kestrels, Martin! The Glasflugel ones don't have
that cover over your feet. They only have the instrument pedestal and
your feet are out in the sun. Free to reflect your shoes and socks
off the forward canopy like a DG or BS1.

As for the hinge, let me look back through some of my Dad's slides,
Wayne. He took pictures of the one piece canopy Carbon Hornet which
has the same hinge. I will try to get you those pictures, along with
the promised HP-15 and HP-17 pictures. And ask my brother Ron to get
shots of the hinge on his HP-18. It is somewhat patterned after the
Mosquito, but instead of sliding forward to engage a tongue and groove
at the front, it drops straight down and has a latch that engages the
cross piece of the forward hinge point.
