I am certain this issue has been discussed before so this is for those who still have the problem. ie;the handle gets loose as it wears, and likes to tilt to the closed direction when putting canopy down in the hangar. This is inconvieient as you then have to climb up to hold handle parallel to the roll bar with a hat or something to open the canopy which is very awkward. After two years (I am a slow learner) I bought a 1"x2" x1/4" magnet at ACE Hardware aviation section and stuck it on the roll bar with a bit of velchro in front of handle. No more tilting back problems, and the magnet does not affect any airplane avionics functions.
