June 24, 20241 yr Had to be really harsh on her eyes. My first thought was that a helmet with goggles or a shield would have been a real benefit. My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.
June 24, 20241 yr She handled it very well. You could see what happened right when she closed the Canopy. I could see the Canopy pop up ever so slightly when she closed the deadbolt indicating that the pin impacted the edge of the steel tube welded onto the fuselage but instead of slipping down into the ring it slipped over the top causing the canopy to raise very slightly. I can imagine that might feel like the canopy closing normally. I lost my canopy in a sailplane entirely in a similar fashion several years ago. In my case I was distracted during my checks and didn't lock the canopy at all! 🤪Then on down wind when I dropped the gear it jarred the canopy out of place and wosh! It was gone!🤣 Edited June 24, 20241 yr by FBW737 Intel Core i9-10900K at 5.2GHz, Corsair H115i PRO, ASUS MAXIMUS XII HERO Z490, G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 15-16-16-36, ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3090, SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS M.2 2280 1TB x 3, Corsair HX Series HX1000 Watt PSU, Pimax Crystal LIght.
