Full Enclosure

The Full Enclosure makes flying your AirCam a year-round possibility. This addition offers the same unmatched visibility as its un-enclosed counterpart, and is completely removable. A favorite among pilots in colder climates, the full enclosure can be retrofitted to existing airframes with few cosmetic modifications. It’s great for use in colder months, and removed within twenty minutes! Planning a long cross-country trip? Install the enclosure before heading out, and take it off at your destination for endless open-cockpit adventure once you arrive.

The full enclosure was designed, engineered, and extensively tested to ensure its overall safety and positive aerodynamic characteristics in flight, all while maintaining the functionality and versatility for which the AirCam is so well known.
