Many of us cold-weather pilots worry about carbon monoxide in the cabin,
especially in winter. After using the "dot-that-changes
color-on-a-piece-of-cardboard" carbon monoxide detectors for the last 9
years, we decided to look at the new battery-operated detectors.
I settled
on mounting it just to the left of the pilot's yoke, on the side panel.

That is the correct place for a CO detector, as CO is heavier than air. On
the ceiling, unless it is in the airstream that is carrying the bad air in,
it is possible that the alarm would not sound.
That's what I have read, anyway. g
