With the current prediciments in the Tropics I'm planning my stratgies for my Warrior I tie down at KDED. The predictions are calling for a cat 2 direct hit and I have two options.
1. Saturday morning, weather pending, fly it up to Lake City FL and I have access to a hanger.
2. If weather does not cooperate, secure it in place, cover, have insurance on speed dial, and Pray.
I prefer option 1 as it protects my bird, but im limited to when I can fly it up due to my work schedual.
Id I do have to secure it in place would you recomend I chain it down (dont trust the ropes that have been sitting out in the sun deteriating), and secure the yoke with a gust lock. This is my first time with my plane and a major storm and I want to be as prepared as possiable.
