There's a hole in them. The plug holds the nostril open and the air
comes in and out through the hole. Take a look at the picture on the

One question If your not getting enough air in your nose to begin with
then how does this thing work by BLOCKING even more air that needs to come
in? Does this sound right to anyone? I just had a sleep study done 2 weeks
ago and from what my ENT told me this just doesn't sound right.

Interesting, so that means if you pay Cessna $100,000 for a new airplane you
should go over it with a fine tooth comb to make certain the engine or
associated components are perfect. In general, basically disregard the fact
that you have paid for a "professional" installation or product and given
This has been suggested before (maybe Mark L.?), I think, but I would first
scan the speed shops on the web and see if a ready-made tank could be found
that could be either fitted in to the wings, stubs, or fuselage as a
permanent or temporary aux tank for traveling. Maybe someone who has done

That was due to the other aircraft he was traveling with. I would think
that most KRs would have a comfortable 350 mile range, even without
aux tanks.

Listen to you all. How do we get kids to want to fly and enjoy what we have the
