Graeme,
I found the Naca vents did not flow enough air for me on hot summer days so w
ent down the standard aircraft practice used for Sailplanes and Motorgliders
( derived from a ww2 requirement of all aircraft supplied to military to hav
e a direct view panel in case of oil coverage or icing ).
I enjoy flying in the winter and during a dawn takeoff from Elverum in Norwa
y snow covered strip , the canopy totally iced over as we climbed out , we w
ere able to use open DV panel to circle the field as the rising sun melted t
he ice and restored full view..
Window needs to conform to shape of screen ,
Mould taken from exterior of screen before I laser cut the window aperture .
The location is high enough so the ram air vent clears the door handle.
And is as far forward as the slide rails will go against door frame .

Nice work KJ.
I am surprised that the NACA vents do not deliver copious quantities of fresh air
I live in Australia (very hot) and have always found them to be very effective
when made to correct dimensions , located appropriately and sized -
I see I gave the wrong information for Peter Anson Engineering - hope this works:

He makes a nice selection of different NACA vents & ducting

Subject: | Re: Blocked Fuel Filters |
For the last 12 years (920 hrs)I have used Hengst fuel filters
Hengst H102 WK
Hengst H103 WK
Benefits:
Gauze filter medium
Almost indestructible, completely leak proof, casing
Clear casing for inspection
Light weight. I always carry a couple of spares never used them.
Cheap if you shop around & purchase a few.
Can be "blown out" but so cheap, why bother
