Back in the early days of working with WAR, I was informed that the WAR Corsair molds were destroyed. So I designed a slightly improved version and then contracted to have the mold made. Having an extra canopy in my inventory, I placed this untrimmed canopy on the body to see just how well it would fit.
Unfortunately the bottom edge on a WAR Corsair follows the Pilot Cage which horizontal to the centerline of the aircraft and the “real” Corsair and this new 75% Corsair do not. The real canopy was designed to come down on an angle as to make it easier for the pilot to get in and out.
All things considered, the fit is fairly good and does not look too off-scale.
