Looking for BT-13 formed canopy glass (plastic). We can fab the flat pcs, but need the formed parts. Any one know of a source? Cowtown Aircrafters, Fort Worth, Texas.

I will look in the a.m., not sure if my grandfather gave them away before now. I will check and let you know.

Banaire has some rubber channel, not sure if they have any plexi though.

Corn Cob, the pic's are great, but do you have any formed plex for the BT? Looks like you have a lot of BT parts in one of the pics. What all are you working on? Do you ever get to the States? Looking forward to hearing from you.

Jay Wisler advertises complete turtledecks and windscreens:
http://www.warbird-parts.com/invent/bt-13.htmlNot having worked on a BT-13 canopy before, perhaps this is a foolish question. But looking at the canopy itself, the top pieces appear to be a straight bend. Have you thought of bending your own Lexan?

Banair is now repoping the formed plex for the BT13. As for the complete canopy wow, not sure where to send ya. We restored the canopy and there are a lot of parts when drilled apart. Good luck.
