I'm happy with the ultimate vents I placed above the knee, so they are 
just clear of the instrument module. Seems like the lightest and easiest 
to install of just about any of the ideas out there.

  I'm progressing well on my second Europa (kit 494) and exploring the 
options for cockpit fresh air.

   

  My existing Europa has the plastic adjustable NACA duct type air 
inlets by pilot and passenger's knees, but these are not particularly 
effective.

   

  I have heard of and seen a number of roof entry fresh air systems 
which I gather are very effective, but I recall reading somewhere that 
cutting the roof can compromise the strength of the cockpit module.

   

  All (UK) LAA approvable suggestions gratefully received.

   

  Thanks
