Thanks, I enjoyed that. Very instructive and informative.
Zooks!! ... the E 4 canopy is a real shocker though isn't it. What the hell were the designers thinking?? All that framing, all those blind spots. The canopies on the E 1 and 3 aren't great but they're design marvels by comparison. It would be interesting to know what specification the designers were trying to satisfy because operational requirements don't appear to have been a significant driver during the decision-making process.
