I have completed the seat cushions and the baggage compartment. Next is the passenger area and the pilot/copilot area will be last.

Tim Yoder" Subject: Re: KIS-List: window tint Tinting is more effective in reducing glare than heat. Dual pane would help keep the interior cooler but only if you air-condition the space. Light colors reduces the heat absorption but when the plane sits in the sun it still gets to hot.Shade and venting is about the best you can do. I am in Arizona and try to be finished flying by 10:00 am in the summer. It is usually over a 100 deg. by then. ----- Original Message ----- From: Galin Hernandez To: kis-list@matronics.com Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2011 3:41 PM Subject: Re: KIS-List: window tint Exactly why I am changing the interiors to a light tan color.

I would recommend contacting Aircraft Windshield, they made the windows, and asking what they recommend short of buying new windows with a darker tint.

In Florida's hot and sunny climate, tinted windows are a must to keep out most UV and a lot of heat buildup. ACS sells a kit for this. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience with tint films?
