Karl has made reference to my vent mod. I have tidied up the documentation
a little and it is attached. I do not suggest it is the right solution
rather an experiment. So far I have not made the time to do any detailed
measurements.
I have never detected air moving in or out round my door seals.

Thanks for the answers. I'm building a tri-gear by the way. As air inputs I
have a scoop in the top (in the closed position it is completely level with
the fuselage), windows with a vent opening, and these ACS "ultimate vents"
just below the instrument panel. I guess this is enough for air vents.
The general consensus seams to be that the doors will function as an air
exit. I'm not to happy with that, for I try to keep them into their intended
shape (have some aluminium bar rivited in to discourage them from bulging
out) and using them as an exit will probably generate some noise. Good idea
that the area above the wing will be low pressure, I could maybe make some
gills in the bagage bay just above the wing. Anything that enters via the
flap slots will find a quick way out then as well.
