Does anyone have any personal experience getting soundproofing in a
Mooney M20J ? How effective is it ? Will your ears still ring without headsets ? Has anyone checked decibles before and after soundproofing ? |

Has anyone checked decibles before and after soundproofing ? From what I have read on the subject is that you are better off trying to beat the sound before it gets into the cockpit. Typical changes are to put 1/8th thicker windows in the windshield and side windows, and to put some kind of aftermarket muffler on the engine, like the Europeans have to do to meet sound regulations. The windshield and side windows probably have an STC out there, but the muffler add on is probably tougher, but the place to start is some European folks flying Moon Pies, I would think. -- Jim in NC |
