About Ron Kensey ...

More than a decade ago, Ron Kensey invented the first reflective aircraft sun shields that did not require Velcro or other fastners. His Kennon Sun Shields were an immediate sensation, and he's been on the leading edge of protective covers for aircraft ever since. We've used Ron's covers on our own aircraft for years, and are extremely proud to have Kennon Aircraft Covers as a sponsor of AVweb. You can order any of Kennon's covers and sun shields on-line and help support continued free access to AVweb and AVflash in the process.

Interviews with Ron Kensey of Kennon Aircraft Covers

The Kennon Insulated Engine Cover is designed to help retain as much existing heat as possible and to distribute heat uniformly over the entire engine during any pre-heating operation. It is also used for up to six hours after the engine has been shut down to eliminate the need to pre-heat again. They may be used with any preheat system.

Kennon's Engine Cover is constructed from high-tech Dacron fiber insulation laminated between two layers of waterproof domestic nylon oxford cloth. Kennon's exclusive laminated blanket construction prevents the fiber from shifting and eliminates the necessity of quilting the blanket which is desirable since quilting destroys the loft and therefore decreases the insulating quality of the blanket.

For an in-depth discussion of engine pre-heating, read AVweb's interview on the subject with Kennon's Ron Kensey.
