Default Ultra flash wing bag options?

Excluding the stock CARF silver wing covers, what's out there as an option? I know about Jackie Sacks and Wing Tote. Any others I need to check out?
Thanks.

Revoc also makes custom bags (see revoc.eu) but including shipping they will be almost 3 times of the Wingtote. I also have the large Wingtote bag and I for only about $70 couldn't be any happier.

I cut my own from harbor freight large movers blankets - local shoe repar shop does the heavy-duty stitching for me

Default Revoc

Here's mine. I loved them, & Revoc already have the templates. You can also match your color scheme if you're into that.

Is the forward part of the Revoc bag stitched or held together with velcro? Their website says velcro...

The Revoc bags are stitched at the leading edge and have a zip for the trailing edge - there's no velcro on the Ultra flash bags. They are tailored to fit and they've recently changed the material they use which is now even more protective.

Yep stitched, but the beautiful thing about Revoc is they'll do anything you can think of. I designed droptank carry bags, sent them my drawings, they asked for what additional measurements they needed & made them. They nailed it 1st shot.. very impressed with these guys.

Nice thing about the Wingtote bags is they have rings on the ends to hang them up although one end only has one ring instead of two for some reason? I stand/hang my wing/bag on the leading edge on the top shelf(shelf has about 4"of foam) in my trailer to save room and and I can use the rings with bungees to keep the wing bag from moving.

Has anyone tried the Revoc wing bag for the classic flash? I am curious how thick the material is and how well it fits? I was thinking of getting it and if I like it, I'll probably get one for my ultra as well. Was looking looking at the Jackie sacks flash wing bag, but they are $350 compared to 170 euros shipped for the revoc

We have two sets of Revocs which I purchased from Scott at Elite Aero Sports. They are absolutely the best bags I've ever owned. Very reasonably priced, perfect fit, almost like armor on the outside and super soft flannel on the inside. They made them for our BVM F-16 and Cougar. Even allowed space for missile rails which will save some time during setup. They arrived on time all the way from Eastern Europe. Highly recommended
