I am interested in reducing sound and vibration levels as perceived in the cockpit. ANR headsets are fine, but hearing loss occurs over a long period of time being exposed to noise.
I would like to add soundproofing material to the cowling of my RV-12iS.
I also would like to add soundproofing material to the firewall and avionics bay. I suspect this would be best accomplished inside the cockpit as much as possible to facilitate condition inspections, etc.
For overall soundproofing, the cowling seems a logical and relatively easy solution, as there is room for the material.
Other than added weight and recalculating the W&B, does anyone have any thoughts on this topic?
