Guys, are there any recommendations for a reliable vendor for a set of custom wing bags. I have a need for three sets, one for my Nimbus, and one for my Discus, and one for my little Cherokee. Hanger rash is a bummer.

Get a roll of this and iron your own! Share the expense with a buddy so he can make his wing bags, too! Cut bubble wrap to fold around your wing, etc. Put your covering iron on 'high' then iron around your wing with the bubble wrap shiney side out. The white to white side bubbles will pop as they are heated fusing the two sides together. Trim with a scissors. It works great! -
ARUP, I've made a few of this type for some f3b-type gliders. Thanks for the info and link.

If you want padded cloth bags Dan Fitzgerald in CA has made them for my ASW-20 and Duo Discus. High quality work with Velcro closures and carrying handles. danfitz@pacbell.net should get you in touch. Some models he has patterns for, but if you provide a full size pattern he can make a bag!Comment

Tom, I take it you mean pattern for the wing sections? I've sent him an email just now. We'll see what time brings.
Thanks for the info and contact,

Tom, Mark,
Dan responded to my email, so thanks for the contact info. Dan has currently shut down his wing bag business, and used up all his material. This is in prep for a move to Washington state in a few months. He stated he will be restocking bag material after the move, and will startup the business making bags again. I likely will wait a bit for his relocation, and have him make the several I need/want. He sent me a few photos of his products, and they do look nice and well made.
Thanks Again,
LarryComment
