See if you can source a Squadron vac canopy.  I think it replaces the roof as well, so the small upper windows are also clear, unlike the kit.

Oh, and you should post this in the aircraft section.

Thanks Real G. Squadron is listing it as unavailable. 

Any ideas how long it usually takes to get them in would be helpful? 

Oh yea, I posted it in aircraft section

Thanks again

Squadron went bankrupt a couple of years ago, but has been bought and now managed by a guy who seems to be really interested in making the company a good one.  I've since made several purchases from Squadron since the new ownership, and have been completely pleased wit the service.

I'd email or call Brandon directly to see what he says.  Being the Labor Day weekend, probably need to wait until next Tuesday, at least:
