I flew today in Rochester, New York when it was 92F  - a record.  My oil temps after takeoff up to 3000' topped out at 220F and up to 7000 feet cruising, I was at 180F - NICE.   A couple of hours before dark is my favorite time to fly.  Provides the smoothest air for testing a Lancair.  I have just 8 hours remaining and have followed FAA AC 90-89A to the T because I think a lot of time and money has gone into that research and it has proved very beneficial to me.   
   
  However, it was sunny (which never happens in NY) and I have red hair so I got a little warm.  Not too bad but will probably put up a shade of some sort to avoid frying the brain which I have been told by my ex-wife - is not in my head anyway.   
   
  I have 2 small NACA vents that come into the cockpit and they do provide nice cooling but I want more air.  Some people told me to make some sort of cockpit air exit and make it so it can close for the winter. 
   
  Has anyone done this in a 320 or any other plane?  Can someone send me a picture?  
   
  I am thinking that will improve flow of air throught the cabin.  I think I made the cabin pretty secure and there isn't much air leakage.
   
  Thanks.
   
  Matt
