Default Side-mounted canopy -- Prevent blowing shut?

Thanks to everyone who provided suggestions. I'm seeing that it's
even more critical to close AND lock than I had considered - a great

If your Ventus has a lifting panel then raise the panel every time you
open the canopy. You might get some minor damage to your instrument
cowling (or, in my case, lose the PDA) but it should save the canopy.
