Hi Willie,
Good to hear from you. We got back this afternoon from France - a
good trip but needless to say it would have been that much better
with you two there!
I still haven't decided on the material for my covers, I also have a
possibility of using a sort of marquee for the aircraft in the
summer. I will be using an enclosed trailer in the winter. Both these
could well benefit from your dehumidifier.
Hope to see you at a DOTH soon,
All the best, Paddy
