You just never know what you find lurking in the hell hole under the RCP seat. This time thankfully it was large enough to be lodged under the seat. During my annual this Feb., a video camera lens shade cover was recovered from under the seat. I do have Dennis Savarese's FOD cover installed. I do not have uppper tail section to the verticle stab (part above the stabulator) sealed though. I believe somewhere I say a drawing by Mark Jefferies on that installation.
About once every quarter, I pull the empanage tail inspection cover on my YAK-52 and inspect the tail section above the magnatomer. I put a digital camera in the tail section and take a few pictures looking forward to the RCP. I also take pictures from behind the rear seat looking aft to the FOD cover. This done as recommended by Steve "SOB now POTUS" Fox.
This has been lurking under the seat since mid October after Red Air Fall Fling.
As much as I hate it, may be smart to pull the seats occassionally too between annuals.
