RV 7A sun screen advise
First, thanks to all who responded to my ignition key inquiry. My key has an asc #, I?ve reached out to spruce and am hoping for a reply/solution.
Now I?m in search of a easy install, deployable sun screen for my tilt-up 7A. I?ve heard about one but haven?t not been able to find info on it yet. Please advise.
Dues paid through 01/21!
Thanks all, sle

Koger Sunshade
+1 on Koger Sunshade...it is invaluable in flight, but also at startup...often there is so much sunlight coming in that the screens are difficult to see without a decent amount of shade. Great product and an easy install.

Agreed - Koger
I just installed the wide tip-up Koger in my 7A. Easy to install, easy to use. Highly recommended.

Has anyone gone from the regular shade to the super shade? Is the difference tangible?

Ordered one today. Is the double sided tape efficient or messy when it gets warm?

Not at all. I have had mine on my 6A tip-up for 3 years without any issues. You might need to push the double sided tape in to get a good bond from time to time but it's hasn't fallen on my head yet.

Mine's been stuck on for 10 years and hasn't shown any signs of sagging in that time. It is pressure-sensitive adhesive, so take the time to press on it firmly for the recommended duration during install. I did, maybe that contributed to the strong bond I seem to have.

i have been using some collapsable rectangular shades, with suction cups that hold them in place. They are nice because you can move them around as needed. I purchased mine at Walmart.
