Just like the title says,has anyone ever use dacron or ripstop nylon from hang gliders,paragliders etc as a lightweight covering?
It wouldn't be for a wing or tail surfaces but possibly to save some weight covering the turtle deck area,door frames etc.Basically a lightweight option for non critical surfaces.
