They sound like a great idea Marv. Where are they available from and what's
involved in installing them. I believe the sooner one is aware of a
potential problem, the more time you have to deal with it.

I know it's not fire suppression, but on that Eagle-540-powered Lancair IVP
I've been working on, I installed a string of 368*f thermal fuses around the
upper perimeter of the firewall, on which the opening of any one of them
triggers a master annunciator alarm advising us of excessive under-cowl
temps that could only be associated with a fire. Should the alarm go off in
flight it would dictate declaring an emergency, shutting off the fuel to the
engine and making an immediate landing. Like I said, it's not suppression
but it's better than doing nothing about the issue. FWIW
