I have cut an inlet each side to allow air in just under the knees. 
These I have covered by clip on boxes with segmented openings with 
segmented circular covers which can be rotated to open or close the air 
path which can enter just under the knees.

However I have not flown the a/c to see how it would work.

Carl, 

The ultimate ventilator shown below could be installed easily in your 
plane. Not sure about your approval to do so and all. I installed them 
just below the windscreen, above the fuselage jogle, as close to the 
panel module as possible. They are above my knees and I like the way 
they are infinitely adjustable. Plenty of air when you want it.

I have seen them installed in the lower corner of the windscreen itself, 
too.

The mod Bruno describes is documented on our web site 
(http://www.theeuropaclub.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/G-MIME-Vents.pdf
).  It is PFA/LAA approved but at present LAA cannot find the paperwork 
(or even a number for it).


The ultimate vent is nice (see picture) but expensive.

Hi,


Does anybody have a mod/ design for a vent that can easily be fitted to 
an existing installation.


I believe the front screen is a structural component so can=99t be 
altered but presumably the side screens could have a vent installed.


I believe that Spruce and Speciality sells design that can simply be 
bolted into a circular hole cut through the Perspex.


For obvious reasons an approved mod would be preferred.


Thanks
