description A drip pan apparatus for a helicopter includes a frame and a drip pan. The frame is secured to a skirt on the airframe of the helicopter. The apparatus includes a drip pan for cooperation with a frame to cover an access opening to a transmission. The drip pan includes a substantially planar member of a fiber-reinforced composite and has a seal surface that is configured to cooperate with a seal surface of the frame. A seal member may be disposed between the substantially planar member and the frame to form a fluid-tight seal. The fiber-reinforced composite may be a carbon fiber-reinforced composite. A method of making the drip pan apparatus includes placing a plurality of sheets of an uncured fiber-reinforced composite material on one another to form an uncured stack. The uncured stack is then cured. A frame and a drip pan may be cut from the cured stack.
