Hi just wanted to know if any manufacture has come up with a air awning for folding camper above or knows anybody who makes these up
We have the proper awning but wanted to make the process quick to get up eg zip to camper and inflate

don't think one is made for Conway.
We bought the air awning for our pennine pathfinder some months ago,
It doesn't have a zip it has clips which fit around the three centre poles of the apex, they are a bit fiddly to fit but practice would make perfect!

I may consider stitching a zip on next year when the awning is out of guarantee, the size of zip 'teeth' varies from model to model which is why they are not supplied with zips.

It may be possible to purchase an air awning and get a zip stitched on so that it would fit your Conway, or stitch one half of the zip on yourself.
I think some people on this forum have adapted airbeam.

Like other adapted awnings, FC's have an apex, unlike caravans. So this would need to be taken into account when looking.

We paid £500 for the Pennine awning, used it once it's OK, but we never manage to get away for short breaks, I prefer the main awning for longer breaks.

Thanks for info I found a company called tent valeating services who look like they have converted a few
Kampa ones but not countryman so I've messaged them
Never thought about the zip issue
Have not tried normal awning yet as just bought it only used it for 1 night without as it wasn't worth taking
And having kids we will only go away for a long weekend or just weekends so want something quicker to put up hence move from tent to FC
