Club Homepage Forums Classified Ads Buy & Sell - Everything But Airplanes Wing Covers Needed

I have a '61 150A and have recently had to move it out to a tie down. I am looking for options for affordable wing covers. Any body have suggestions? I am in Canada.

Hi James and Welcome to the 150-152 Club forum.

I have and use Alaska Wing Covers [alaskawingcovers.com].
I have had them for about 4 years now and like the tight fit so they don't flap
around in the wind.
They might be a bit costly bit I think they are worth the money.

Hello fellow Canuck and Welcome!

Where are you from? I am in Saint John, NB for the winter. Lost my wing covers last year along with my new ELT antenna in a big wind storm. Haven't replaced them yet as I don't know whether I'll keep the plane or not. Haven't hardly been home long enough this winter to fly anyways.

There's lots of great folks here, hope you'll join in often.

planecover.com worked great for me...because I have the HORTON STOL kit/Fences we arranged a phone call and he had me measure 3 dimensions so that it would fit properly...and it does...good folks.

Thanks for the help guys. I have ordered from Bruce's. They have an excellent selection of covers for the 150 with several options of protection. I was looking for something to help with the hail here through the warm season and snow off in the cold. I went with the all season padded covers for the wings and tail.

I spoke to Alaska, they didn't have anything for hail protection but were willing to work with me to make something, but suggested about $1500 for just the wings. I paid $1070 for both, plus the shipping to Canada, I am looking forward to that bill...

Excellent choice. You absolutely cannot go wrong with Bruce's. [aircraftcovers.com]

There is a set of wing and cabin covers for sale at:
www.Cessna120-140.org [cessna120-140.org]

With an early model you are flying a 140 body, complete in every detail except for the training wheels.

Those covers are going cheap.

I guess I am a litte late to the game. I ordered mine from Kennon covers (http://www.kennoncovers.com/). Frees shipping to Canada from Wyoming. I think it was around $575 Canadian.

I am located in Sask and we had some days this winter with HUGE wind (100km/h) and they did develop a couple tears. Easily fixed with a good sewing machine I suppose. But the are nice looking and fit well.

Ordered mine from Kennon Covers. Top quality and they fit perfectly. They also take into consideration any mods, from fences to vg's to trailing edges, with extra material.
