My garage is unheated in the winter and no AC in the summer. Will it be safe to store my planes in the garage?
Thanks,

Yes it is safe, oil the engines real good if they are going to sit a while.

I second chas......I may go over board but I'm bad about hooking the trickle charger to my batts once a month. Or I take them out an work them over in the house. How ever there are a few planes that don't get to take the winter off. Flinton Edge 540...An a Great planes Little Toni.

I plan on flying through the winter. Only the wind will stop me as far as the weather goes.
I just wanted to know if it is okay to store planes in an unheated/nonAC garage.
Right now the wind is keeping me from flying. Since I am a novice, I do not know what the winds are like in the winter.(I never notice until I started flying) I do not want to stop or I may lose what little skill I have developed this summer.
Thanks for all the help this forum has given me.

Me too. No A/C or heat. Planes have been hanging for over 20 years and they are fine. they may wrinkle a bit but other then that, no problems.

Sounds like an opportunity to add heat and air to the garage to me
