Default F-16 Canopy Opening

If anyone has made the canopy opening machanism for F-16?

I will plan to make canopy opening for my next COMBAT model F-16N.

Does anyone experience to perform this machanism?
thanks.

Tony, I have done a number of these on BVM F-16's in hte past. They requrie a substantial amount of mods on an F-16 with a fiberglass fuselage. I have seen a CBM F-16 built and to my belief there is no way it could be done on that bird. With the foam and such, it would take an entire amount of rework on the fuselage, to the point of almost eliminating the foam and making it fiberglass in that area. Doesn't seem to be worth the effort in my book.

I can forward you some pics of the system I use on hte BVM birds if you are interested.
