Default Broken Web Links

Ed,
Your web links don't work for me. Are you using the Chrome browser?? I'm using Firefox with uBlock Origin pop up blocker.

I tried using MS Edge. It asked me to sign into my Google account, which I did. Still no joy on those links.

Charlie

I too cannot access the photos, I think that the owner needs to enable sharing.

Sorry about the link but it should work now. Using Google account and Chrome for a browser

I used .005 SS Shim Stock, 1/8" FiberFrax, 3M Barrier 2000+. No wrinkled tinfoil look like the thinner stuff but some oil canning is to be expected around the areas where you attach items over it but still easy to work with, gloves still a must. Also a hydraulic punch works great for making nice clean round holes. Ordered everything from McMaster-Carr.
All steel or stainless purchased or custom made fittings used for any pass through items. No painted surfaces on the cockpit side.

Default forward floor

It seems to me that the goal of mitigating fire penetration should be on the forward floor rather than the firewall. If the cabin side of the firewall is free of flammable sound deadening material and unpainted, is not the forward aluminum floor the greater risk in the event of a significant firewall forward fire event? I recall one or more posts suggesting cladding the exterior of the first 18 inches or so of the floor with thin stainless sheet to prevent fire penetration into the foot well. Easier to do than cover the stainless firewall, and perhaps more benefit.
Thoughts?
Bill

Ed,

Thanks for fixing those links. They now seem to work using any web browser.
