Veco Mustang canopy
« on: March 09, 2013, 04:54:12 PM »
Got my new Veco Mustang today, from a friend. Kit is nearly complete, but no canopy.

Having plan printed (from a Zip file) but it will be next week before I can pick it up.

Anyone know if a Sig canopy will fit? And the length?

Or who is making that one?

Thanks in advance, just want to gather the rest before I start ass'y...

Hi Mike,

I'll look and see if I have one.  I should have a couple.

Great, Bill.  Thanks... Wife Joey stated today that this airplane will be a 'start to finish' project. There are unfinished and 'works in progress' in the family hangar.

I use the old Veco Mustang canopy on my Tempests. RSM has the mold that I made directly from the Mustang canopy. Perhaps he can make one for you.

Eric does sell all the canopies for his kits.  Pretty reasonable prices and it might be the quickest way for you to get one, Mike.  At the present time, I am slower than a three toed sloth on tranquilizers................. ;D y1

Mike, I got your e-mail,but lost it before I read the entire message. I hope that RSM can give you a good clear canopy.

                          Cheers,
