A friend and I would like to renew the cockpit canopies and windscreens on our Linnets (British-built 'CDN' Emeraudes).

What do Emeraude builders in France use?

Soplami don't answer my questions Annoyed

, so does anyone know an alternative source for good quality transparencies? The shape is similar to the later Emeraudes (CP320 rather than CP1310) and CAP10.

Sorry for not attempting this in my appalling French, and thanks for any help!

Thanks Giovanni,

We've looked at Todd's canopies; good reputation among the RV builders in the States, and very economical compared to anything in Europe!
I think they're blown rather than moulded, and so have good optics, but the shape seems very spherical compared to the original. We may still go this way if we can't find a better match.

Regards,
Bob
