Hey Guys, Are the naca vents that most people are flying with enough to cool on a hot summer day ? I think that I saw a picture of a KR with leading edge vents in the wings that were turned upwards after entering the cockpit.(Like a Cessna.) Would this be O.K. or would it disturb to much airflow ? Just a thought. It won't be long before I start on the wings. Mike Sylvester kr2s builder Birmingham,AL. Cell no.205-966-3854 I saw a picture of a set up using a pipe that ran in front of the lower portion of the front spar and apparently extended out into the stub wings. I think the pipe had a T in it that when laying flat on the floor it was closed but when rotated upright it was open and gave a blast of air to pilot and passenger. Very simple and effective idea.
