Re: Me 109 canopy with slot at the top?!
I can't make my mind up one way or another. I've searched through all the resources I have and it appears that the slot or glued handle appears more often than not on canopy's belonging to F-series Bf109's, especially those with the auxiliary bullet resistant 57mm windscreen. The image below shows a Bf109F-4 with both and is reproduced from German Aircraft Interiors 1935-45 [Monogram, 1996]
