Hi,
About 6 months ago the manufacturer of the very popular Canopy Caps became unable to continue production. I hope they will be back in business in the future. I have now found a very nice alternative source for very similar products here in the USA - the SimplyKool Metallic Canopy Covers. They are very similar to the Canopy Cap products, but better in some ways. They use an elastic drawstring to set the fit - which makes them able to accommodate a wider variety of canopies. You set the drawstring once and never need to adjust it again. They are available in both silver and gold colors. The price is the same as the Canopy Cap. You can see details he http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/simplykool.htm Best Regards, Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. |

Paul, I like the new gold color. You might want to start stocking the matching pants for those fashion conscious pilots out there. Everyone knows how important it is to have pants that match your canopy cover. http://www.amazon.com/Hammer-Gold-Pa.../dp/B003Y2DU3U SF |

Hi John,
Good question - They are ramping up the number of sailplanes for which they have patterns. So far they don't list any DG sailplanes. http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/simpl...e_Sail planes But they are willing to work with customers to create new patterns. You can see details on that he http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/simpl...t_Listed_Above It involves taking some measurements and supplying photos. It is possible that they might not get it perfect on the first try - in which case you would need to ship it back to them along with details on how to improve it. But the use of the elastic drawstring makes the design quite accommodating. Best Regards, Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. "ContestID67" wrote in message ...
