Canopy covers help reduce damage to your airplane's upholstery and avionics caused by excessive heat, and they can eliminate problems caused by leaky door and window seals. They keep the windshield and window surfaces clean and help prevent vandalism and theft.

The Bellanca (American Champion) Citabria & Explorer & Scout Over-Top Canopy Cover encloses the windshield, side, and skylight windows. This is a one-piece design which wraps around the canopy and closes with Velcro behind the pilot's side door, and at the same place on the other side of the cabin. By peeling open the Velcro closure on the door side, one can enter the airplane without removing the entire cover. The cover will extend over the top of the cabin area and out past the wing root fairings to help protect against leaks. The cover fastens with two belly straps which are adjustable and detachable from either side with heavy duty plastic buckles. To keep the sides of the cover from sagging, special tightening straps are sewn onto the upper hem on each side. To insure the most secure fit, high quality bungee cord is enclosed in the hem of the cover. This cord is also adjustable for tightness.

An Extended Canopy Cover is also available and extends down to the main wheel struts to cover more paint. The Extended Canopy Cover that extends back to the tail will cover and protect the fabric on the tailboom and will extend to the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizers.

Each canopy cover is custom sewn and the corners are trimmed to match the colors of the airplane. The airplane's registration number can be imprinted onto both sides of the cover for an additional charge. A duffle bag is included with all canopy covers and can be customized with your registration number and/or logo for an additional charge.

Each canopy cover is lined 100% with Micro-fiber. The outer material is treated for ultraviolet resistance and anti-static buildup. The inner lining is a Micro-fiber to prevent scratching. Our cover material is extremely reflective. Tests show that the cabin interior temperature can be reduced by as much as 25 degrees F. It is water, ice and snow repellent, yet breathable enough to allow moisture to escape from between the cover and the windshield surface. The material we use does not contain hydrocarbon compounds that can harm plexiglass windshields and acrylic finishes.

Engine Inlet Plugs are custom-fit for your intakes, sewn of heavy duty vinyl material, and stuffed with a single block of urethane foam. Each plug has a zipper that allows the foam to be removed and dried if necessary. Engine plugs have warning flags that are visible from the cockpit or 'remove before flight' streamers sewn onto the face of the plugs. Most plugs are embroidered with the aircraft registration number, done in black, about 1" high. Engine plugs may be inserted after flight when the engine is still warm.

The Engine Cover/Insulated Engine Cover will synch around or behind the spinner, cover the entire engine cowling area including the engine air cooling and carburetor air inlets, and fastens together with velcro beneath the spinner down the front of the cowling. The Engine Cover is attached with a belly strap aft of the firewall, and can Velcro to the Canopy Cover. An Insulated version of the engine cover can be made with a thicker quilted water repellent and breathable material that is insulated with Hollofil. The Insulated Engine Cover works well in cold climates to help reduce engine pre-heating times.

The Propellor Cover - Insulated Propellor Cover is lined 100% with Micro-fiber, like the canopy and engine covers. It is a one-piece design that form fits to the blades and spinner. The cover slips over the blades and spinner and is attached by a zipper on the bottom. Propellor covers can be made for multiple numbers of blades, for wooden, composite or metal props. An Insulated version can be made with a thicker, quilted water repellent and breathable material that is insulated with Hollofil. The Insulated Propellor Cover works well in cold climates to help reduce engine pre-heating times.

Tire Covers come as a set of two and cover the tires to protect them from damage caused by the elements.

Wing Covers with/without Hail Protection are a perfect solution to protect your paint and prevent frost and icing. They are form-fit to slip around each wing tip, cover the entire upper surface of the wing and wrap around the leading and trailing edges. The covers secure under the wing along the chord of the wing with adjustable straps. The wing covers also attach to each other in between the wingspan with adjustable straps. Therefore the wing covers secure laterally and along the chord of the wing for maximum protection. A small mesh cutout along the bottom wing tip allows any excess water to drain out so that the cover bottom won't sag. In some instances, cut-outs can be made in the trailing edge of the wing covers to accommodate static wicks. We have the ability to also accommodate wing tip modifications, such as STOL kits, etc. Wing covers are labeled LEFT and RIGHT for your convenience. A Hail Protection version can be made in which we sew a very dense closed cell foam into the entire upper surface of the wing covers to prevent hail damage. Although these covers are very bulky, they protect your control surfaces against small to medium size hail.

Horizontal Stabilizer Covers with/without Hail Protection are a perfect solution to protect your paint and prevent frost and icing. They cover the entire upper surface of the stabilizers and overlap around the leading and trailing edges as well as the wing tip. The covers secure under each stabilizer with adjustable straps. A Hail Protection version can be made in which we sew a very dense closed cell foam into the entire upper surface of the stabilizer covers to prevent hail damage.

The Empennage Cover is a one-piece cover that protects the vertical and horizontal stabilizers, as well as the tailboom area aft of the Canopy Cover. The cover attaches with Velcro to the aft edge of the Canopy Cover, and with adjustable straps underneath the belly. The cover is pulled back over the vertical stabilizer and a zipper is closed at the trailing edge of the rudder. The cover is then stretched over the elevators and zippered closed along the bottom elevator surfaces. There are also some adjustable straps under the elevators. All antennas, beacons and static wicks, if applicable, are accounted for.

Pitot Covers are made of a type of heavy-duty Naugahyde vinyl that is form-fit to each style of Pitot tube and includes a 'Remove Before Flight' streamer, generally sewn onto the leading edge of the cover. In most cases each Pitot cover is custom made to slip onto the pitot tube and stay in place without snaps or Velcro.

The Travel-Cover is a custom-fit light weight travel Canopy cover intended for limited use during trips away from home when space and weight are restricted. At less than half the weight of the standard design, this polyester/spandex material is lightweight, reflective, and stretchy. Travel Covers will only shed a light mist or morning dew. Travel-Covers are not intended for extended or permanent use outdoors. Also can be used as a fitted dust cover! HeatShield Interior Reflectors are custom-fit for all specific years and models of aircraft. HeatShields are made of a special laminate of metallized silver reflective mylar laminated closed cell foam. Less than 1/8" thick, the reflector is stiff enough when flat to stand up against the windshield using the sunvisors and window framing only. On some designs, on the side cabin delicate suction cups are used to keep the heatshields in place. HeatShields roll up and store in a sleeve yet retain a memory to be flat whenever they are needed. HeatShields are an excellent short-term remedy for cockpit overheating when traveling and also protect the avionics and upholstery from harmful UV rays, but the Canopy Cover offers a more effective and practical solution for long-term use.
