Hi Tom,

I don't know the inspection details, but I have a few questions about an O2 installation in the Express.

Does anybody have some pictures of their installation and which kit the used? I took some pictures of a plane under construction in Olympia where the O2 mounting brackets were in place, but none of the plumbing was in place. What kind of mounts are used, just very large pipe clamps? Are there any recommendations on the install? Does anybody have system recommendations?

Thanks,

Eric

Just an update... After looking through all of the systems at Oshkosh, I was blown away by the various systems offered by Mountain High. Of course, I went for the most expensive equipment they had because after choosing what I wanted, the guy said it would be about $10k :P So, I will kick it down a notch and go for a simpler system with a control-panel mounted unit (the same one as the turbine panel shown at the Express booth at Oshkosh). Anyone else interested can check out their web site at: http://www.mhoxygen.com/

Happy building!

-Eric
