Does anyone else have any theories to alleviate the long taxi and hold heat
situation?
Mike
Hi Mike
I confess to having those chimney hopes as well. I expanded the oil door
opening to about a 1 foot by 1.5 foot opening, so I could do a better pre-flight
check and occasionally wonder about running a cable back there to pop it open
while I'm sitting on the ground as the cowling sure traps in the heat. I am
pulling some ideas together to put in two small scoops on the belly to run air
directly at the fins of cylinders 5 &6. as they just get too hot in climbing
out, but I don't think that will do anything much to aid cooling when I'm
sitting on the ground... but who knows.
