Larry & List,  

   

Back in the 80’s when my Dad, Brother & I built our Quickie the plans called for a redundant canopy latch. I quickly put together the attached drawing to show what it was. It was very simple and worked well. The canopy closed all by its self. When opening, you simply unlatched the primary latch and then pulled out the stainless steel latch plate off of the screw. The slot held the canopy open a little while taxiing. It also allowed the canopy to stay partially open when parked without flying open with the wind.  

   

 Larry, perhaps you might use something like this.
