The primary shades must be dark, heavy-duty F72 SR material, while secondary shades must consist of DS 8 SR material to provide maximum protection from solar glare and heat gain. The existing shades have not been replaced since 2017, exceeding the FAA Regulation 6480.18 recommended replacement interval of 5-7 years.
