For those interior diy'ers... what did you use for the floors?
I have no other interior niceties other than seats. I would like to install some sort of floor system that includes insulation/padding to fill the space between the floor stiffeners. I would like to mount that insulation to a thin piece of something: aluminum, plywood, fiberglass, carbon fiber, ?, etc. I'm not sure about carpeting it or not. The goal would be to have a floor that is not the skin of the fuselage and provide some sound dampening.
I would like to have a separate piece for both the pilot and passenger sides that can easily be lifted out without removing screws. I also don't want something that can slide and bunch up at the rudder pedals either. And I'm not worried about covering the center fuel pump section yet.
fire retardant, non toxic smoke generating materials would be important.
So, what have others done? what worked well, or what would you have done differently.
Thanks,
