FRANS et al –
I appreciate the thought that a NACA duct “lets air in” rather than blows it in, but am reminded of a variant of the NA F-86 SABRE with a solid nose and side NACA ducts for the engine intake!
I forget the variant number but I don’t recall any complaint from the testing of same – but there might have been some...... If not, surely the engine would demand more flow than just “letting it in”?
Cheers, Ferg
PS: I fashioned a small duct designed and fabricated per the original dimension ratio which directs 1.25 inch air onto the Ducati thing. (Fussing about flying in rain tho’
