Lancair 200/300 series A/C resolution:
 
Take two yellow Micro-fiber Towels.
Run some cold water over at least one of them.
Place it over the back of your neck.
Pull the Koger sun shade to the full forward position.
Crack the canopy and rest it on top of the closed latch fingers.
Fully open all the vents that don't until 100 mph.
Start the engine and Visualize a York Mint or the melting polar ice cap.
............
Resume the pre-takeoff check list and, to stop any other occupant from moaning, stuff the remaining towel in the whining orifice.  Remember that the wee thing will climb fast enough.

So... I understand A/C is a must for the IVP. What about the non P guys
building? Any thoughts?

"So, for you builders who were like me, I encourage you to take a page
from my retrospective lesson book and consider installing the A/C while
it's easier, while the engine and airframe are not finished"

Jeff,

I agree 100%!  The A/C system we installed has been a necessity - not a
luxury.  When we were building, Janie (better half) insisted on
installing A/C and now I am glad she was so insistent!  Our Virginia
weather this time of the year (90 degrees - 90% humidity) makes it
mandatory.  I promise anyone that if they do install the A/C, they won't
be sorry.  The only thing I would suggest is to be frugal with costs
when selecting a system.  The systems out there on the market are pretty
much street rod systems and they don't cost $5-8K!  A little bit of
research will save money for other "goodies".
