Default RE: Storage - hanging jets from the ceiling

I use Romex wrapped around the fuse/wings and hooks. The reasoning behind using Romex is it does the job very cost effectively and it is stiff. The stiffness allows you to guide the wires onto the hooks while you alone support the fuse with both hands. Sheathing cut back at hook location, or on some just 1 wire around fuse/wing.

All hang inverted, (dust accumulates only on bottom) gear retracted.

Takes a bit of practice, but not that big a challenge.

Oh, and doesn't look as pretty as straps. But I have around 12 models hanging off the ceiling. Do the math first, not after.
