Hi Monty,
( I admit I am NOT a fan of EWP quite yet...., however stand to be corrected) 
I think Rusty used one with success in hot weather. I'm also waiting to see the EWP prove itself, but at least over here we're open to the possibility.
 
 # NACA scoops work: Well I guess you if you make them big enough 
Let me rephrase, then. The Cozy plans NACA scoop is sufficient to cool a turbo rotary.
 
 of course, BUT there are better and more efficient ways to get cooling air in! 
I think, for a pusher, the NACA is the least draggy solution we know. I may be wrong.
 
But one should take advantage of his list of resources and really dig in 
IMHO There's too much untruth and incorrect / unproven theory buried in the truth to make the exercise worthwhile
 
# Earth round?? Obviously you never fell off the edge yet!! Actually it has the shape of a trochoid!! - bet you didn't know that! 
I did say almost. :)
 
Regards,
John
