I received my repaired engine mount earlier this week (Nice Job Chris) and I am going to start putting everything back together tomorrow. While I am in there, I thought I might install a safety cable around the engine to keep it at least attached to the airframe in case of a mount failure.
I guess my first question is, is this a good idea, or is it useless extra weight. The IAC seems to recommend them and I think they are mandatory in Formula 1 racers.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Does anyone have one on their airplane and would they like to show some pics of the installation?
Thanks,
Cameron
