I live in the DC area and would REALLY like to pick up a 2 hole biplane as a second airplane.
However, as anyone in the DC area will tell you, getting a hangar to put it in is simply not an option. Even if I had the opportunity to rent a hangar (2 to 3 year wait minimum) I don't have the $500 to $600 a month to pay for it.

I keep our 170 outside year round already but that's all metal.

I'm looking for advice/ideas on how to keep something like a Starduster/AcroSport/Skybolt outside in the weather year round.

My initial thought was to make/have made a custom set of covers for the whole plane to keep it relatively dry but in a way to let it breath.

Is anyone else doing this?

PS: Before the conversation swings: Yes, hangars are that expensive around here and No, I don't want some all metal airplane solution.
