They keep the windshield and window surfaces clean and help prevent vandalism and theft. The Cessna 140 Canopy Cover is custom designed and fit for each model as well as your aircraft's specific antenna and possible temperature probe placements. The Canopy Cover is designed to enclose the windshield, side and rear window area. The Canopy Cover is a one-piece design, which wraps around the canopy and closes with Velcro behind the pilot's side door. The Velcro closure allows entry to the airplane without removing the entire cover. The Canopy Cover also attaches by two belly straps, one under the engine cowling and one under the tailboom. Belly straps are adjustable and detachable from either side using heavy-duty quick release plastic buckles. The buckles are padded to prevent scratching. To ensure the most secure fit, high-quality shock cord is enclosed in the hem of the cover to help keep the cover tighter against the airplane. Canopy Covers are commonly referred to as Cabin Covers, Fuselage Covers, Canvas Covers, etc.

We here at Club Headquarters are reflecting back on 2016 and find ourselves looking forward into 2017, eagerly anticipating good things to come. Last year was a relatively quiet one for the Club in general but, seemingly coinciding with the general elec- tion, we experienced a surge of new members and product orders, which has continued into January. This is the time of year that many aircraft owners take the opportunity to repair/refurbish/upgrade their air- planes…and why not? The weather can be pretty gloomy around much of the USA and Canada. We have lots of Belly Drains and some Gascolators going out the door and that tells me folks are prepping their little birds for a season of aviating. General aviation at our level has taken a disappointing downturn over the past years and in my opinion the root cause is economics (and possibly video games). The world economy has been stagnant and the cost of owning/flying an airplane is beyond most folks’ reach; and by that I mean that the priorities of people have to be focused on paying bills and feeding their families.
