For those of you who have been there and done that.
Did you use the light or medium fabric?

I used the light fabric throughout with Stewart covering system. Cheers, Ken

When you think about it, the Maule series of aircraft (one of the few fabric-covered aircraft still in current production) are covered using the *medium* weight certified fabric. The M-7s carry twice as many souls as an Air Camper, have a gross weight twice that of an air camper, use engines with twice the horsepower of most Air Campers, and have a Vne twice that of an Air Camper. Sounds like the *light* fabric is just fine for our Piets. Just my opinion though.

34KP has medium weight SuperFlite on it. Personally, I would hesitate to use light fabric.
