Anyone have a good solution for heating the cabin in the winter while flying?

Bruce,
I don't own a plane yet, but I was wondering if a small catalytic heater might work temporarily. Probably a fire hazard somewhat.

Seal up the tail so the air can't come up from the back. The baggage sack
is pretty porous, and a TON of cold air migrates forward from the leaky
area where the elevator attaches. I use heat off the exhaust, and it'll just
about melt your shoes, but the back of the neck gets pretty frosty.

Bruce,
Type in Cabin heater to the search engine for the KitFox list and you will get a ton of good ideas. The subject has been discussed many times and thanks to Matt's great archives, its all there as if it were yesterday!
