Anybody with experience want to talk about how/why this happened? Seems like part of the problem was the small opening on the right side of the plane. But I imagine its should be designed to not break so easily considering the use case. In addition, I'm surprised the canopy would open instead of staying locked. Good thing this pilot didn't panic and was experienced enough to still safely land the plane.
It's in the description of the video, the canopy locking pin wasn't locked and she failed to notice during visual checks
