Besides meeting some of the friendliest folks at the flyin, I like seeing how others solve problems.
Prior to Alliance, we were discussing cooling in the cabin.
I was fortunate to be parked next to Don Claude's beautiful machine; His work is an inspiration.
On my second inspection of his a/c I noticed the airscoop(s) he had added and thought the group might want to see how simple his solution was/is.
I hope you can see from the photos that this scoop was made from a single piece of metal, artfully bent to provide a friction mount (felt inside) to the plexiglass window, and an extention of 3-4 in. into the windstream.
