CO Detectors for the Cockpit

If you own an airplane, you should be concerned about the dangers of carbon monoxide leaking into the cockpit. There are a number of inexpensive detectors on the market and in this video, Aviation Consumer's Paul Bertorelli reviews some of the popular offerings.

The little clip on one looks idea for just attaching to your kneeboard.

Handy if you're going to be a humble aircraft renting individual like me haha.

@deanow2007 I know a guy who nearly passed out from CO in the cockpit. Fortunately he recognized the symptoms and was able to ventilate and land safely. Airplane was grounded for quite awhile for repairs. I found this review to be very helpful. Sorry you didn't, but unless you're the editorial director, probably not every single story will interest you.

Helpful, informative and funny too. One of your better videos!

Is mantaining the cabin heat closed enough to prevent CO filtration? once i got CO in the cabin, what do i have to do besides closing the cabin heat to get it out of the cabin?

I don't think so!

I subscribed for flight reviews, and I'm sure a lot other people too.
