Default Replace weather covers

My weather covers are beginning to look a bit tatty and will need to be
replaced sooner rather than later. The UV has done it`s damage over the
years and the seagulls also who like to peck and engage in other
activities. The plan is to replace the covers with sailcloth. Any ideas
what the best spec is best for the job.?


I'm happy with mine from Clouddancers http://clouddancers.de/
which are still looking good after 8 years use, despite the dirty birdies
best efforts.

I think having covers with a soft/waffled layer under the waterproof top
cover and a netting undersurface for ventilation of the wing and
tailplane is a near essential.

Another thumbs up for Clouddancer.
I've owned EMFO and currently 2 Clouddancer "Uncutable" sets, besides a canopy/engine bay cover from Jaxida and the usual assortment of other canopy covers.
