I built an air duct across the top of the dust cover with a series of slots cut to direct the warm air up toward the canopy and installed a small fan and (Y) air valve to allow selection of defog or floor heat. The effort was not completely successful in that on the very humid days when the canopy is cold before take-off there really is not enough air flow to do the job. I think I need a larger fan. The small fan does help the situation though and as soon as I get off the ground there is no problem. Bob Jude
