Fouga Magister CM170


Fouga Magister Canopy/Nose Cover (illustration)

THE FOUGA MAGISTER CANOPY COVER attaches with a series of belly straps at the front and rear of the cover. Attachment buckles are made of non-metal Delrinª, designed for rugged outdoor use. The belly straps are adjustable and detachable from either side. The canopy cover comes with a duffle bag. The N-number can be imprinted onto the cover for an extra charge. The canopy cover and the duffle bag are trimmed in the colors of the aircraft. The Canopy Cover is made of nylon Silver Laminate, a two-ply laminated fabric developed by Bruce's Custom Covers especially for aircraft protection. The outer material is a medium weight nylon treated for ultraviolet resistance and water repellency. The inner lining is brushed nylon tricot knit. This material is extremely reflective. Tests show that the cabin interior temperature can be reduced by as much as 25 degrees. Silver Laminate is water, ice and snow repellent, yet it is breathable enough to allow moisture to escape from between the cover and the windshield surface. Silver Laminate contains no hydrocarbon compounds which can harm plexiglass windshields and acrylic finishes. The Extended Canopy/Nose Cover is similar to the standard canopy cover, but is goes forward to cover the nose as well. This cover also extends down and more aft on the fuselage. The Fuselage Cover encloses the entire fuselage from the nose to the exhaust area, leaving the wings, horizontal and vertical stabilizer areas exposed. Wing and Horizontal Stabilizer Covers are made of the same silver nylon material, but without the soft lining used on canopy cover designs. HeatShields are interior reflectors which are intended as temporary relief against heat buildup in the cockpit or cabin interior. The do keep the interior about as cool as exterior covers, but they can take longer to install and do nothing to protect the plexiglas or to prevent damage caused by leaks. Also, in aircraft equipped with laminated windshields, they may cause damage to those windshields because of excessive heat buildup near the glass. Our HeatShield material is a special laminate of metallized polyester film, laminated to a thin sheet of closed-cell foam. It is thinner than bubble-pack type reflectors, and has extremely good reflective and insulating qualities. Where an exterior cover is not considered practical by the operator, a HeatShield is often the best solution for cabin protection.
