| Weight | 0.3 – 0.5 kg (.66 – 1.1 lbs.) |
| Color | Silver |
| Protection Provided | Direct Sunlight |
| Not Waterproof | But Will Dry Quickly |
- Direct sunlight kept off instruments
- Cockpit temperature reduced
- Prevents canopy frame warping
- Encloses cockpit, not frame. This allows the canopy to lock which is much safer during a tow-out.
Q: Does the Canopy Glove wrap around the canopy frame?
A: No, because this means the canopy can’t be locked when towing out. Our Canopy Glove fits over the nose of the glider and is held in place with bungee & hooks underneath and over trailing edge.
Q: Is the Canopy Glove available in a different color?
A: We only offer Canopy Gloves in shiny silver.
