What are the fire characteristics? Sure, RVs are not certificated aircraft but the hazards are still the same.
Thanks!
I think I am going to make templates from poster-board tommorow. I think that will be fairly simple.
I'll send photos after I'm done.
My wheelin box is behind the left seat in the baggage compartment so I think I'll pull it up and then re-mount on top of carpet once it's in.

Follow up question about fire resistance; I have used the Unbound Indoor/Outdoor carpet available from HD. This stuff is made from PET fibers and is not supposed to substantially propagate flame when exposed. Have not put any in my RV yet but my carpet is about due for replacement. Has anyone used this stuff and care to comment? I may put a torch to a piece of scrap to see what happens.
Thanks!

My plan is to weigh the old which is small and light and then weigh the new before install. I will attach is via velcro so if I need to remove it for more weight it'll be simple. I have the W&B info in fore-flight so that'll make it all simple.Carpet is heavy. You might want to weigh the piece (or estimate its weight) that would go in your baggage compartment before making that commitment. I made a very nice custom mat for the baggage compartment of my -6 about 20 years ago, weighed it, and decided that I'd rather have several more pounds of baggage allowance.

I've seen some people say 1800 on MGW and some say 1650, but no definitive answer i've found.

I have been trying to find that so thank you.
