Dear Team,

Jim White and I have been listening/watching this forum on the discussion of
soundproofing for our Lancair IV-Ps. Jim Scales and Jack Hickman have
offered advice that generally conforms to my thinking, but we'd appreciate
any other comments/opinions. The Lancair-provided soundproof kit is HEAVY
and for this single reason, we haven't yet installed it. We're at a critical
time in construction to soundproof or pass it by. Hate to waste (more) money
on something that will provide marginal benefit/return, but "it's now or
never."

We'd appreciate your comments, particularly from anyone that didn't install
soundproofing initially and then added it after flying without--a before and
after assessment if you will.

Thanks,

Bob Pastusek
