One last thought, would it be acceptable to razorback fans to make the center canopy frame semi-transparent in the gunsight view.

It seems to me that this would not be totally unrealistic as binocular vision is not really accounted for in models. If you look beyond a narrow obstruction with both eyes, the effect is that the obstruction gains transparency. Could one of the experienced skinners comment on the feasibility of this or if it should even be tried.
