They keep the windshield and window surfaces clean and help prevent vandalism and theft. The Fairchild 24 models 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.
