Nice flying Harv. Got my new wing tube a couple of days ago, now I just need some free time to get it flying again (maybe this Friday).

Well I finally maidened my 36% Edge today. Everything that has been said befor about the flying qualities of this plane is true.
I love it flies great and lands it's self.
Just line it up with the runway, on short final cut the throttler and glide it in no problems oops sorry about the BME hat

This is great news! I'm glad things went well. PM or call me with any questions that arise and I'll help where I can (unless its 3-D)

Default Re: PAU 36% Edge 540 Build

Having left my Edge in the sun for extend periods of time at Joe Nall the canopy sunk-in at the top. Whats the cost for replacement? Is there any way to heat and pop it back out? I have pushed the dimbles out from the interior, but they pop back-in. Any suggestions. As its glue-on very well, I,d rather not remove it, if it is possible to repair. OPEN to suggestions. <RUTNBUC>

Not much you can do for lexan that has basically melted in. Tinted canopies are hit the hardest as they tend to soak up the heat (dark color). I always try to put a towel or cover over my tinted canopies for just that reason.......regardless of the state I'm in or the temp outside.

You could try a heat gun but it will most likely distort it more.
