Probably comes in around the opening in the fuselage tail where the elevator spar goes through. I have not yet come up with a practical means of blocking off this forward flowing cold air. No problem with air flow coming into the cockpit through the eyeball vents when they are open during the summer.

I have 2 eyeball vents on the panel for air intake but haven't provided any vent for exhausting cabin air. In an exhaust vent necessary or does the opening where the elevator passes through the rear fuselage act as an exhaust vent?
