Marv,
As we plan our Lancair IVP projects, I am still seeking information on
available airconditioning systems and the requirement for same. Heard from
several folks that the cabin is very warm in the IVP because of high input
temp from the turbos anytime the aircraft is in the air, and very limited
cockpit airflow on the ground. Then talked to Gary Lorentzen at Lancair, and
he indicated the IVP was no different than any other light plane--hot on the
ground in summer/direct sun, but quite comfortable as soon as airborne.

Other opinions/observations?? Info/sources of A/C systems for an IVP??

(The only AC unit I know of for the L-IV / IV-P comes from a company called
Airflow Systems (ph 760-632-7010 fax 760-632-7015), is a complete kit, and
as of Oshkosh '98 cost around $7400.  Naturally there may be others out
there but I am unaware of them.  <Marv>)
