    All of which are compliant: Duct proportioned as per NACA coordinates, positioned where all the other Europas have positioned theirs, and the fuselage 'sucks'. So some other explanation is needed. However, I'd be interested to learn about the size effects; can you elaborate.

    I am looking for a flying Europa to purchase, so have little Europa specific information to give you however my current aircraft, an ATEC Zephyr, has NACA vents, on each side of the cockpit, just aft of the firewall - they perform very well. I will have to measure them to be sure but at a guess they are approximately 100 mm wide x 120 mm long. This suggests to me that your problem is not the vent (assuming correct design) but their location and/or possible alignment in relation to airflow I think you have probably worked this out already. Soooo perhaps tufting of possible locations to show air flow/direction but as you wont be able to see how they move, a camera mounted on the wing might just get the information you need for best placement/alignment. As for size check out http://www.ansoneng.com/ -------- 46 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=501112#501112

Not sure why./ Hello all, Just for the record, the "unreceived" posts I was talking about just arrived two days after my last response. Maybe something to do with my Internet provider or the 'List server, don't know, but they are not labelled as spam. -- Best regards, Gilles http://contrails.free.fr http://lapierre.skunkworks.free.fr

To support Ducan message, location, location ! The "NACA sumerged inlet" works only if the streamlines at its location are fairly parallel (ie no acceleration or especially no deceleration) and not too disturbed. A clean inlet ramp, really square edges and a proper "lip" are required. Should craft a web page one of these days. FWIW -- Best regards, Gilles http://contrails.free.fr http://lapierre.skunkworks.free.fr
