OK does the Prefect, as selected by Ascent, allow two standard RAF pilots to fly it with the existing bone domes?

Or is it the case that the canopy is too low and the bone domes too large?
Both the Trago Mills SAH-1 (later known as the FLS Sprint) and later versions of the Slingsby T67 Firefly were built with oversize canopies specifically to accomodate bonedomes.
