Cover for Ximango - Sep 2004

I take it you want more than a canopy cover? I know a guy in Fort Collins
that can do it as he has built covers for my kayak, but specializes in
aircraft upholstery.

Hi Bruce:

 I take it you want more than a canopy cover? I know a guy in Fort Collins
that can do it as he has built covers for my kayak, but specializes in
aircraft upholstery. I imagine if you are talking about the wings(folded
or unfolded?), the fuselage including horizontal stabilizer, your looking
at upwards of $2500, more if you want to put in pockets for foam for hail
protection. Let me know if you want me to check with him for an estimate?
Also I'd need to know if you want a waterproof cover? I imagine you do
since I suspect you are leaving your plane outside.

Bill

You've described it perfectly! Yup! That's what I'm looking for,
that's what I need. Difficult to determine a price, but your
guesstimate is  fine. Best way to go forward would be a look-see.

Can we arrange a look-see at a convenient airport this Saturday?

yrs,
