Default RE: Storage for planes


ORIGINAL: Wolfmann

Where do you store you're planes. I am in Houston and have a shop but no AC in it. Is that a problem over time. I am just now getting back in to flying after 30 years and have to store the planes some where.
Thanks.

Right here up the pike in New Caney! One item that one must be aware of is these #&%*$$*! mud-daubbers, dirt-doubbers, or whatever you wish to call them. I have airplanes in the barn and in the garage. These things find a way to build a nest everywhere from in the fuselages to in the mufflers and through retract ports into the wings. HATE 'em! [:'(]

I keep the wasp and hornet spray close but they still over-run the place. Otherwise the planes seem to survive the temperature extremes fairly well. I have ARFs, dope and paper/cloth, and other painted types.

Good Luck. If you can, come to the Jetero RC Club, Inc. 12th Annual Anniversary Fly-In Sat. Mar. 29 '08. www.jetero.com and the events forum, or me for directions. [sm=49_49.gif]
