I wrote a while back about having a dust problem in my hangar. I think I may have the solution. Thanks to Todd Scruton, I now have a parachute that hangs from a pulley in my hangar. It's 35 feet in diameter but I can't quite cover the empennage without the rudder having some tension on it. The center of the chute fits right over the VHF antenna. I may get a smaller chute for the tail.

This will sure beat wiping dust off of the airplane all the time. Thanks again, Todd!
