One thing, any plane parked on the Playa would need lots of protection
against the fine dust and high winds, I bet it could craze
plexi-screens pretty quickly.

Yeah, no kidding. Parking my plane four days at Las Vegas, it wound up
covered in desert dirt, more dust than anything. That's a large, paved
airport. I can't imagine what it'd be like sitting actually out IN all that
dust.

A cockpit cover would help protect the windows, but a) dust will still find
its way underneath, and b) the rest of the plane will suffer regardless.

Maybe bring a really big roll of plastic, and just wrap up the whole plane
after you've parked? You could probably even make it an art project.
