Anyone got a non-soundproofed Lancair for comparison?<
My Lancair has only a bit of sound proofing under the false rudder pedal
floor. I consider the noise cancelling headset to be a lightest solution
to the noise elimination desires. Effective sound insulation is heavy and
expensive. Save the $250 of sound insulation and get a good $300 noise
cancelling headset.
Oil/Air separator<
My air/oil separator has a container to hold the oil that ends up being
separated from the air. I drain the oil during the annual condition
inspection or sooner if necessary. The breather tube opening from the
air/oil separator is just above the exhaust pipe. Any oil that bypasses
the air/oil separator (maybe 1 drop per trip) that ends up in the breather
tube will drip onto the exhaust pipe and vaporize. Result -- no oil on
bottom. Jim Frantz
