I skimmed it.. Chris and I are actually considering armpit scoops for cooling, but we still have this nagging urge to minimize deviations from plans. I will go back and do more than just skim..

All I saw was NACA's, Cooling and immediately thought of PL..

You are right Bill. David did not read the whole article. Or he  didn't want to hear it? :)

I read that article as well. I had the same skepticism about the  NACA intake for cooling. My understanding is that with an NACA  inlet, you don't get the ram pressure you need to force air through  a high fin-count radiator. Am I wrong about this?

At the risk of invoking PL's name, anyone else read this months  Sport Aviation mag from EAA, and notice an article on cooling that  seems to indicate that NACA's are acceptable and adequate for  aircraft cooling needs? I have no idea regarding the authors  credentials, and I no longer monitor PL's "newsletter".. I was  curious more than anything else... Pauls reaction, others  reactions, etc.

Translation.. yes.. I'm stirring the pot/Trolling... I figure if  we are using NACA's on the Velocity, that makes us somewhat of a  NACA supporter..
