As I get prepped for W&B...I need to get the last details on the interior done. I decided to tackle the baggage area first.
First task, eliminate cold drafts coming from the tail cone. I used expanding foam sealant in the triangular areas (white stuff) as shown. I then added some 1/8" weather stripping all the way around. When I rode in the backseat of an RV10 to San Diego for my Tiger Cruise, the draft on the back of my head just about made me numb going over the Rockies. This little step is important for a nice, comfortable cockpit...not only for moi, but especially for the little lady, who gets cold when its 75 degs outside. :) Heated seats are also part of the package.
I wanted to throw some outdoor carpeting in my baggage floor storage compartments. Mostly just to keep the bottom fuse skin from getting dinged up. I chose a floor mat with rubber backing. In hindsight, not sure if that was the best choice. This could be a corrosion problem if moisture gets under there. With the alclad, it has some protection, but I will keep an eye on this until I'm sure its not a problem. Carpet color?...RED of course.
