Eduleo Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) Dear All, I am about to get our plane out of its first annual after purchasing it a few weeks ago. For the moment our new baby will be outside while we wait for a hangar to free up. The idea of having it outside in the elements (PA winters can be harsh!) gives me nightmares, but the waitlist for any hangar within 50 miles is long... It comes with a full canopy cover, cowl plugs, and the tail "diapers", but I think we need to protect wings, elevators and vertical fin as well.Google gives me: Bruce:https://www.aircraftcovers.com Mac covers:https://www.airplane-covers.com/wingcovers.htm This Canadian company:https://www.aerocovers.com/prod01_wing_cover.shtml Kennon is apparently not in the covers business anymore. Any suggestions on cover companies that are reasonably priced but offer good quality covers for all seasons? Thank you!

M20F-1968 Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 I have a set of wing covers that I can sell cheap. If you send me your e-mail I'll get a picture sent off to you. My e-mail is john.breda@gmail.com. They will serve you until you can bet a hangar. John Breda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro I'll be in Gettysburg, PA. Small airport, no fuel, a few T hangars, all occupied. Harrisburg manages it and they have expansion plans, but who knows for when... Town is nice though! Edited November 4, 2018 by Eduleo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertGary1 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Take a yoga class. I’ve been outside for 20 years with a standard Bruce’s cover and plugs. -Robert 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel 10 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 ++ on Bruce's. I've bought a couple of covers and accessories from them. They have always been very easy to work with and very attentive to ensuring good fit for the covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So each time I buy a new one they already have everything on file. They know all my antennas etc -Robert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a big tree being on the final course for the west facing runway. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
