Hey, I think I missed this! I don't have it.
Does this bulkhead serve any structural purpose?
Should I retrofit this (or something similar)?

The Bulkhead as drawn, Is how I did it in the first instance on G-KITS [ Trigear Prototype ] Andy, for some reason decided it was not needed [ structuraly anyway] so it was deleted from later Trigear Manuals.
It is a good idea to install one, I always do on ones I build, helps keep the noise/ heat / smell from the engine out of the cockpit, and somewhere to mount fuel pump[s] on the rear face.

As Nev has said the bulkhead is not structural. I discussed this with Barry Mellers when I redesigned the centre tunnel of G-IANI in 2002. My version consists of glass flanges onto the tunnel and bolting the bulkhead panels to them. This means the bulkhead can be removed for access.

Newsletter 24 is dated December 1999. All copies of the newsletter are on the Club wed site.

To add to the benefits others have listed it is also a secondary fire wall which would prevent Alasdair’s freezing draft becoming a flame thrower.
