wow

 To possibly fix the rain fly scrub the fly with a bathroom type stiff brush to remove all of the flaking factory waterproofing. Then apply 3 light coats of 3m scotchgaurd making sure to dry between coats. It's worth a try before trashing the tent. Scotchgaurd outside I made that mistake of laying dropcloth inside in winter and waterproofing inside and almost ended up camping out on my front porch. I have used this method on some old army parkas in snow weather before I could afford my new snow gear. Plastic sheeting is cheep also.
