Airstrem receives the ReVy” award

check out the Airstreams







In the camping world there are a few special awards that deserve to be mentioned. The Camping Life RV Awards are one of those awards. Camping Life has awarded Airstream their “ReVy” award for 2009. The ReVy award is sort of a thumbs-up award given to the company that produces a trendy new product specifically for people who enjoy camping.

This year’s ReVy was awarded to Airstream for the Flying Cloud travel trailers. In their own words: “They are a blend of tradition and modern art, and just plain cool. It’s the chic RV. Aside from the retro-classical aluminum-skin exterior; the new Flying Cloud trailers feature exposed aluminum inside walls, and a unique and distinctive interior using high-quality surfaces (wood, vinyl, aluminum and laminate) and more neutral color choices than other Airstream models to create a comfortable, stylish, but wash-and-wear interior. The smaller Flying Cloud units can be towed by most mid-sized V-6-powered SUVs.”

Cleaning Curtains on your Airstream

Cleaning Curtains

There are two different curtains in travel trailers: a loose-weave type for Classics and a polyester type for all other travel trailers.

Both types can be machine washed however we recommend you hang-dry the drapes in Safari, Bambi, and CCD models.
Safari, Bambi, and International CCD Curtains


Note: These curtains are manufactured by Dana Mills, Inc.

1. Remove the drapes.
2. Dry clean the curtains.
3. Hang drapes up to dry so they don’t shrink.


Classic Curtains
