Sporty’s introduces Flight Gear tie-down kit

By General Aviation News Staff · October 23, 2024 · Leave a Comment

Sporty’s has introduced the Flight Gear All-Weather Tie-Down Kit.

The kit includes two 10-foot straps for the wings and a 6-foot strap for the tail, designed to accommodate both high-wing and low-wing aircraft.

Each strap features coated snap hooks on both ends for quick connections that will not damage your aircraft, according to Sporty’s officials.

With one pull of the strap through the cam buckle, the tie-down delivers a secure hold with a break strength of 1,100 pounds, officials added.

When you are ready to depart, use the quick-release button on the cam buckles to release the strap tension. Then pack your tie-down straps in the included storage bag to ensure your tie-down is organized and ready for your next flight.

For a personal touch, add up to six characters of embroidery to your storage bag, such as your N-number.

The kit is available for $39.95 in either high-visibility orange or jet black. Custom embroidery, up to six characters, is available for an additional $9.95.
