Default RE: Don Smith Cessna T-50

Thanks so much for your response Joel!!.............you are a good observer.......the exhaust is very close to the throttle servo....and that does concern me........I thought about a heat shield........something like the heat sheilds used on autos to protect the starter from the exhaust manifold heat.........let me know what the product is when you find out........it sounds like it would be just the right thing........

The boxes are air baffel passages to cool the cylinders of the engine........necessary when using a baffel plate........in this case, one that supports a dummy Jacobs engine....
