My 912S has 2 NACA's on the right side, one small one for my fresh air vent
and the larger one for the oil tank area.

Subject: Europa-List: Lower cowling NACA inlet
--> <hutch@hangarbout.fsnet.co.uk>
Hi all,
I'm busy doing the cowlings at present, and I'm intrigued as to what is the
purpose of the lower cowl right side NACA inlet. It doesn't seem to aim at
anything, it just appears to blast cold air at the very bottom of the oil
tank and the right footwell, then probably straight out of the main outlet
at the rear of the cowl. I'm sure someone out there understands the science
of the design??? The reason for the question... I was considering tapping
some of this cold air into a 1 inch scat tube to feed a pair of eyeball
vents on the panel for a cool breeze on the face.
Awaiting replies with much curiosity!
