bmar Posted March 25, 2017 Report Posted March 25, 2017 I'm looking at covers for the CTLS. Aircraft covers offers a canopy only cover, or a canopy and engine cover. What do you do when the CTLS is stored outside? Would full engine and canopy cover be the best option? Do you have to wait for the engine to cool before putting the cover on?
bmar Posted March 25, 2017 Author Report Posted March 25, 2017 The issue I am having currently is there is no enclosed hangars available. I am on a waitlist, however until I can store it in a T hangar, the airport has a couple shade hangars available for $85 a month until I can get a hangar. Is the shade hangar a bad idea? Even if it has an airplane cover on in the shade hangar? I've posted ads and called all the airports around and they all have a long waitlist for hangars. :/ Thanks for your input and feedback
Anticept Posted March 26, 2017 Report Posted March 26, 2017 Shade hangar is fine. it keeps the majority of the elements off it.
rtk Posted March 26, 2017 Report Posted March 26, 2017 This thread is timely as I can't find any hangar rentals in my area. Anyone have recommendations or experiences with fabric shade hangars or portable fabric hangars? I'm attempting to find a seller/distributor for one that isn't hideously expensive that I can show to my FBO and see if they'll allow me to install this at the tie down.

Check with Aviation Covers Arlington WA, they offer nearly full coverage. Give them exact dimensions.
WmInce Posted March 29, 2017 Report Posted March 29, 2017 I have been very satisfied with my custom fitted cover from Bruce's Covers. It fits perfectly and is very easy to get on and take off. My airplane: https://www.aircraftcovers.com/media/images/12547.jpg https://www.aircraftcovers.com/CTSW
