Hi All, Since I'm new to the IV-P, I am wondering what the level of worry is of carbon monoxide getting into a pressurized cabin. I know with my old Cherokee or Mooney, I always had CO detectors (either electronic of that little cardboard thing that changes colour)... but with the pressurized cabin, I would think there may be less chance, perhaps close to no chance, of it getting into the cabin. Can someone please shed some light on this for me? Thanks, -Dico --B_3397639990_36210507 Content-type: text/html; charset="ISO-8859-1" Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable
