What Are Aircraft Preservation Covers?
Aircraft preservation covers are protective fitted covers designed to shield engines, landing gear, windshields, sensors and APU intakes/exhausts from dust, moisture, UV, FOD, and environmental exposure. They ensure safer storage, reduce corrosion risk, and maintain aircraft readiness during downtime or long-term parking.
Our preservation covers include engine intake/exhaust plugs, landing gear covers, windshield covers, pitot/static probes covers, and APU plugs. Each product is tailored for specific aircraft models and engineered for secure attachment, long-life materials, and rapid installation during storage or parking.
Compatible with: A319 / A320 / A321 • A330 • A350 • A380 • B737 NG/MAX • B757 • B767 • B777 • B787 • Embraer • ATR • C295 • A400M • KC-135 and more.

Why Aircraft Preservation Covers Are Essential
During storage or downtime, aircraft are vulnerable to environmental damage including UV exposure, corrosion, moisture, wind-blown debris, insects, and wildlife intrusion. Proper preservation covers protect sensitive systems, reduce maintenance costs, minimise corrosion, and ensure full readiness when returning the aircraft to service.
