A Hamilto wrote on Fri, 16 October 2015 15:21The early models had a plywood floor. By the end of production, there was a layer of metal on the bottom, some insulation, then plywood.
Did that affect the ceiling height? If not, how was that avoided?
My understanding is that the floor systems of 73 & 74 are not the same as 75 and later,
I help work on a 73, and was surprised to see the plywood floor be directly on top the isolator
strip. With either alum angle or tee bars between floor sheet joints.
By lifting the body a sheet of alum could be added for heat or moisture shield.
But not any foam insulation. The area at the APU (auxiliary power unit) may show how it is.
Whether that makes a difference in interior head room, I have no clue.
Someone else in a higher pay grade then me may be able to add to the head room question.
