We currently have a C172P that looks incredibly faded when compared to our 206 and 182.Does cap repaint the fleet on a regular basis? Have the handful of ex-iraqi cessnas been repainted from gray yet?

I'm sure quite a few. I know Bessemer's was always outside and I believe still is. Shelby County's used to be but I think its in a covered spot now. I know a couple in FLWG were as well.
Is it a requirement that all new G1000 planes must be hangared? I heard someone say that but not sure if its official. Should be, if you ask me.
CAPR 66-1 says aircraft should be hangared. It is not required, as mentioned previously. Your Wing can mandate it, though, for the entire Wing or an individual unit depending on the location of that aircraft if conditions or environment might be too harsh at that location which can contribute to damage.
Sure, your wing can mandate it, as long as they include a check to pay the hanger rent. Unfunded mandates are not cool.

Squadron X with the hangar gets the shiney G1000 plane for now.So it's not a requirement per se, but the point gets made.
