The Cessna Citation I (500/501) Cockpit Cover helps reduce damage to the upholstery and avionics caused by excessive heat and can eliminate problems caused by leaking door and window seals. They keep the windshield and window surfaces clean and help prevent vandalism and theft.
The Cessna Citation I (500/501) Cockpit Cover is designed to cover the windshield and side windows of the cockpit. Attachment buckles are made of nonmetal Delrin, designed for rugged outdoor use. The windshield cover comes with a duffle bag. The N-number can be imprinted onto the cover for an extra charge. The windshield cover and the duffle bag are trimmed in the colors of the aircraft.
Each Cockpit Cover is normally made from Silver Acrylic Sunbrella or Silver Solution-Dyed Polyester and is lined 100% with a soft and smooth microfiber. Bruce's Custom Covers developed this material combination especially for aircraft protection. The outer material is medium weight and treated for water resistance, UV resistance and anti-static buildup. The inner lining is a very soft and smooth microfiber to prevent scratching. The materials are extremely reflective, and tests show that the cabin interior temperature can be reduced to near-ambient temperature on even the hottest of days. It is water, ice and snow repellent, yet breathable enough to allow moisture to escape from between the cover and the aircraft surface. Our materials do not contain hydrocarbon compounds that can harm Plexiglas windshields and acrylic finishes. Other colors are available. Please contact us for availability and price.

Heat shields should not be used on polarized windows.
