The plane might have to stay outside in the Summer, bring it home for Storage in the Winter for example. Would anybody have any thoughts on any special consideration of the covering or any other aspect of Tailwind construction that would make it more outside friendly.

Alternatively, get involved with your local airports and EAA, and try to share a hangar with someone. Our EAA has hangar space for rent which has been good interim place until a hangar is found. Again it is much cheaper, and a tailwind will fit under the wings of some of the bigger span cans and over the wings of aircraft like RVs etc. I share my hangar with a taylorcraft because it helps keep my cost down a little Dave > --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Chris Wilson" > > I am sure that most hangar your Tailwinds, but if I build I might not have that > luxury.
