|
|
I make carpet for a living (OK, I'm an engineer for the world's largest
carpet manufacturer)...
I don't think carpet is suitable for that application. There is the
potential for too much heat, too close. Carpet isn't designed for the
temperatures you would get on the cockpit side of a firewall where there is
a fire on the other side.
Besides, carpet is heavy. If you're looking for insulation against noise
and heat, you'll do better with a purpose designed product.
Just my $0.02.
