I thought I had replied to this.
It may seem counter-intuitive, but the side hatches on the Mohawk do not hinge on top. The hinge fore and aft at the top corners, so that when raised, the top of the panel slides under into the canopy. We have one of these out at Planes of Fame and I have seen it open that way. If you check photos, you'll see exactly what I mean. It's a super-easy fix.
