Not wanting to cut holes in the sides of my airplane where it might weaken
the structure, I put one big NACA scoop on top of the header tank, right in
front of the canopy. Sorta' like a Long-EZ.

(arning: I have not flown my L-235 yet, so I don't know how it will work out.)

My friend Clarence and I tufted his forward deck, and took his plane up.
From the direction of the airflow across the deck, I angled my NACA vent to
conform.

I connected the NACA duct to some S.C.A.T tube and two eyeball vents on the
lower part of the radio stack. This is no good for you if you have a full
stack, but I am a minimalist...

Obviously, I had to install some tygon tube to drain off any rainwater when
the aircraft is sitting on the ramp.

Hope it works...
