Simulate carbon monooxide poisoning
When cabin heat is used, air is routed over the surface of the muffler. CO amount depends on cabin heat slider and EGT. Some info: http://www.avweb.com/news/maint/182828-1.html
In late 90's, some new 172R's had this problem. See Priority Letter AD 98-02-05.
Checklist:
- Turn off cabin heat
- Fully open cabin air
- Lean mixture
Nice, I am really surprised they used this method to get hot air, talk about dangerous. How often do you see deteriorating muffler systems, Have you ever watched water poring out of a muffler? Metal + water = carbon monoxide poisoning. I think I would be checking the shroud and manifold daily.
There is usually a detector attached to the right side of the panel. It is more or less of the size and shape of a credit card. This is a reference, in case we want to model this: http://qginc.com/sites/default/files/styles/media_gallery_large/public/QuantumEye.png
@onox If you want to model this detector, I can create textures for you. Just let me know.
It is better add a sticker on the panal, and for #1333 C172SP with G1000 version, the G1000 could also shown protencial CO leak.
Add a sticker
