The plane covers are very popular here, 2 options, Wing Bags by Caroline (carden) or plane wrappers.

Mrs Howie,

Well I hope he's going to give you some discount on it as it will be half worn out if he keeps taking pics at the rate he's using it right now.

Matty,

The plane wrappers are just uber bloody ripper mate. I got one for the SX and man it keeps that ol bird cool as a cucumber now. If your leaving your plane out in the sun at events then you need these. To me they are not an option any more. Great stuff.
Maybe Monty can even make them in a good Aussie colour scheme. You know Yellow and Green, the same colours that under arm bowler was wearing a few years back. Kiddin guys, dont flame me for that one please.

The red anodized motor was just a regular 150 with an anodized case. The 200 4-cyl is the same 200 they have been running for a few years now.

Do you know anything about DA releasing the 200, there has been a rumors for quite awhile that they will be releasing some new engines. I thought maybe DA would make some kind of announcment at the shootout.
