Maybe if you have enough Halon to fill the inside of the cowling for one to 2 or 3 minutes it might work. But you always have to think about re-ignition. Maybe foam will stay in there much better and keep spaces filled to prevent re-ignition. I'm definitely not an expert, so get some other opinions, maybe best from fire fighting people. I'm pretty sure the foam can easily be cleaned out.- Bernie. --part1_c00.5ec2205f.377f1471_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I believe= that Halon is a gas and will pour out of every crack and hole there is to= the outside, especially at flying speed.
