Hey Vince

        I'm at the same place, having put a NACA vent under the wing - works 

great for the rear seater, I haven't put anything up front for myself yet, I 

was trying to run a vent behind the tank and in front of the spar for the 

fresh air for the front seat, not enough room behind the tank unless you 

enclosed the whole space and then funneled it into a hose somehow. Did you 

come up with any other ideas? Starting to get warm here in southern B.C.



       Tom M. did you go with 1" hoses in the wing root or was there room 

enough for a bigger size?

do not archive

                                                       Thanks

                                                                       Chris

I used a 2" hose but one and a half would be large enough.  It will work

with glass wing root farings, there may not be enough room it you have the

flat metal wrap around farings.  It might be possible to put a naca duct on

the bottom of the wing root faring but I would be concerned about exhaust

and fuel fumes entering the cockpit in that location.
